Sign Help Along the Route 66 Corridor
Plan Route 66 and main street signs with a regional shop.
Metro East Signs helps Staunton businesses decide which signs will help most, from vintage-inspired designs to modern panels, with estimates and delivery options.
Choosing a Shop From the North End
Staunton is a Macoupin County city on historic Route 66, with I-55 close by and farmland in every direction. It sits near the northern edge of the area Metro East Signs serves from Shiloh, so choosing a sign company here often means working with a shop that is not around the corner. That makes it worth asking a few questions up front: how far does the company serve, how will you communicate, and how will finished signs reach you? Staunton owners also face an interesting design question, since Route 66 travelers enjoy a nostalgic look, while everyday customers want clarity. We help you strike that balance, building signs that nod to the road's history without looking dated or hard to read.
Deciding Which Sign Matters Most
When a budget is limited, picking the right sign to start with can do more than spreading money thinly across many. Begin by asking how customers find you. If most arrive by car from the highway, a clearly visible exterior sign or road panel deserves priority. If people walk past your storefront downtown, window graphics and an A-frame may do more. Service businesses that travel to customers often get the most from vehicle magnets. A thoughtful sign company will ask about these habits before recommending anything. The goal is to place your first investment where it reaches the most potential customers, then add other signs later in a consistent style as your business grows and your budget allows. That way each new sign builds on the last.

Our FAQ's
How far will a sign company in Shiloh serve customers?
Metro East Signs serves the St. Louis metro area and communities within roughly two hours of Shiloh, including towns like Staunton. Many projects can be handled by phone, email, and digital proofs, with delivery available within the service area. If you are unsure whether your location is covered, just ask when you request your estimate.
Can a sign company give my Route 66 business a readable vintage look?
Yes. A sign company can borrow classic elements such as retro fonts, bold color blocks, or simple borders while keeping the wording large and easy to read. The key is balance: limit decorative fonts to the business name and use clean lettering for key details. Ask to see proofs at actual size to confirm readability.
How do I know which sign type will do the most for my business?
Think about how customers reach you. Highway traffic benefits from a large, simple exterior sign. Foot traffic responds to window graphics and sidewalk signs. Mobile businesses get value from vehicle magnets. Share these habits with your sign company and ask for a recommendation. Starting with the highest-impact sign helps you get the most from your budget.
