Where yard signs work
A yard sign puts your message exactly where the traffic is. Contractors and landscapers use them at job sites to advertise while the work is happening. Real estate agents use them for open houses, campaigns use them for elections, and organizations use them for events, fundraisers and grand openings. A sign that stays up for days or weeks reaches every person who passes by.
Tips for a sign people can read
- Use few words. A short headline and a phone number or web address is usually enough.
- Pick high-contrast colors. Dark text on a light background, or the reverse, reads best at a distance.
- Make the main message huge. If it cannot be read from the road, it is too small.
- Choose the size for the distance. Use 12 x 18 inches for slower, closer viewing and 18 x 24 inches when people will read it from a car.
Set up your artwork so it prints cleanly
Build your design at the finished size with 0.125 inch of bleed on every side. Keep text and logos inside the safe margin (0.125 inch for 12 x 18 signs, 0.25 inch for 18 x 24 signs), and use images of at least 220 DPI. Always check spelling and phone numbers on the proof before you approve it.
How ordering works
- Choose your size and quantity. Pick 12" x 18" and 18" x 24" signs in quantities of 5, 10, 25, 50.
- Add your design. Use the online designer or upload your own artwork.
- Review and check out. Check your sign, then place your order from your free account.

Frequently asked questions
How much do yard signs cost?
Custom yard signs from The Marketing Outlet start at 5 for $29.88 (12 x 18 inch signs). Prices go up with size and quantity, and the table on this page shows the price for each combination.
What sizes are available?
You can order 12 x 18 inch signs or larger 18 x 24 inch signs. The 12 x 18 size works well for neighborhood and short-distance reading, and 18 x 24 is easier to read from the road.
Are the signs weatherproof?
Yes. The signs are durable and weatherproof, made to stand outside for open houses, elections, events and business promotions.
How many yard signs can I order?
You can order 5, 10, 25, 50 signs per order. For a larger quantity or a different size, call 1-888-718-6584 and we'll help.
Can I design my own yard sign?
Yes. Use the app's online designer or upload your own artwork. If you want to add a QR code, our free QR code generator makes one in seconds, though a short web address is often easier for drivers to read.
What file setup does a printer need for yard signs?
Build your artwork at the finished size with 0.125 inch of bleed (background that extends past the cut line) on every side. Keep important text at least 0.125 inch inside the trim line for 12 x 18 signs, and 0.25 inch for 18 x 24 signs. Use images of at least 220 DPI.
What should a yard sign say?
Very little. People read yard signs for a moment while moving, so use a large, simple message of a few words, high-contrast colors, and one way to reach you. Leave out anything that cannot be read from the road.
