I will sublimate and ship custom mugs, tumblers and drinkware in bulk
About this gig
I sublimate and ship custom mugs, tumblers, and drinkware in bulk — vivid, dishwasher-friendly, full-wrap prints pressed and packed by hand, then mailed to you.
What you get
- Full-color sublimation printing on your choice of drinkware: 11 oz and 15 oz ceramic mugs, color-changing/magic mugs, enamel-look camper mugs, stainless steel skinny and wide tumblers (20 oz / 30 oz), water bottles, and shot glasses where blank stock allows.
- Edge-to-edge wrap or panel prints with your logo, artwork, photos, names, monograms, or repeating patterns — placement set exactly to your spec.
- Per-piece personalization at no chaos: I can print a different name, number, date, or title on every single unit in the run (great for teams, weddings, and corporate gifts) from a simple spreadsheet you provide.
- A pre-production digital proof (flat layout + wrap mockup) for every distinct design before anything touches the press.
- Color matching toward your brand palette as closely as the sublimation process allows, with notes on any shade that will shift.
- Protective individual packing — each piece bubble-wrapped or foam-sleeved and boxed to survive transit — plus the finished, ready-to-gift or ready-to-sell product mailed to your address with tracking.
- Optional add-ons: gift boxing, custom inserts/hang tags you supply, kitting (mug + coaster bundles), and blind/plain-label shipping.
Plans
| Tier | Best for | Included |
|---|---|---|
| Basic | Small first run or sampling | One design, single drinkware type, modest quantity, 1 proof, standard packing, tracked shipping |
| Standard | Events, shops, gifting | Up to a few designs or per-unit names, mixed sizes within one product family, 2 proof rounds, upgraded protective packing, tracked shipping |
| Premium | Large bulk / launch / corporate | High-volume run, multiple products and full per-piece personalization, unlimited proof rounds within reason, gift boxing + inserts, blind shipping, priority turnaround |
(Quantities and turnaround for each tier are confirmed in chat before you order — exact counts depend on your drinkware mix.)
How it works
- Message me first with what you want: drinkware type(s), total quantity, deadline, and whether every piece is identical or personalized. I'll confirm feasibility and the right tier.
- Send your artwork — vector (AI, EPS, SVG, PDF) or high-resolution PNG/JPG at 300 DPI. For personalized runs, send a clean spreadsheet (CSV/XLSX) with one row per unit.
- Approve the proof. I lay out each design to the wrap dimensions and send a mockup. Nothing prints until you sign off — this is where we catch typos, cropping, and color expectations.
- Production. I print the sublimation transfers, then heat-press each piece at controlled time, temperature, and pressure for a permanent, infused image.
- Quality check & pack. Every unit is inspected for ghosting, alignment, and full coverage, then wrapped individually and boxed.
- Ship. Your order is mailed with a tracking number that I share the moment it goes out.
Why choose this
Sublimation isn't a sticker or a coating sitting on top of the surface — the dye turns to gas and bonds into the polymer layer of the mug or tumbler. The result is a print that won't peel, crack, or wash off, with photo-quality gradients and color that a vinyl decal simply can't match. I handle the whole chain myself: layout, pressing, inspection, packing, and shipping, so there's a single point of accountability and no design getting mangled between hands. Bulk is where I'm strongest — consistent pressing parameters across a run mean unit #1 and unit #200 look like siblings, and per-piece personalization is built into my workflow rather than bolted on. You get a proof every time, honest guidance on what will and won't reproduce well, and packing that's been tuned by actually shipping fragile drinkware.
Who it's for / use cases

- Anyone who wants one knockout custom mug or tumbler as a gift and a tidy, gift-ready package.
FAQ
Q: Are the prints dishwasher and microwave safe? The sublimated image is infused into the surface and holds up well to regular washing. For maximum longevity I recommend top-rack dishwasher or hand washing. Stainless steel tumblers are not microwave safe (metal), but most ceramic mugs are.
Q: What artwork do you need and at what quality? Vector files (AI, EPS, SVG, PDF) are ideal because they scale cleanly. If you only have raster art, send PNG or JPG at 300 DPI at full print size. Low-resolution or screenshot images may look soft once wrapped, and I'll flag that before printing.
Q: Can every mug or tumbler have a different name or design? Yes. Send a spreadsheet with one row per unit (name, number, date, etc.) and I'll personalize each piece individually. This is a core part of how I run bulk orders.
Q: Will the colors match my brand exactly? I match as closely as the process allows and call out any shade that will shift — sublimation tends to render some bright neons and certain blues slightly differently. If exact brand color is critical, tell me and I'll advise or test before the full run.
Q: Can I mix different products in one order? Yes — you can combine sizes and, depending on tier, different product types in a single bulk order. We confirm the exact mix in chat so packing and shipping are quoted correctly.
Q: How is the order packed and shipped, and is it tracked? Each piece is individually bubble-wrapped or foam-sleeved and boxed to handle transit. Every order ships with a tracking number that I send you when it leaves. Blind/plain-label shipping is available on the Premium tier.
Q: What's your turnaround on a bulk run? It depends on quantity, product mix, and proof approval speed. I confirm a realistic timeline before you order, and Premium includes priority handling. The clock effectively starts once you approve the proof.
Q: What if a piece arrives damaged or misprinted? Message me with photos. If a unit left my hands with a print defect or arrives broken, I'll remake and reship the affected pieces. Clear proofs and inspection keep this rare, but I stand behind the run.

Bulk order of stainless tumblers showed up double-boxed and every single print was crisp. Already planning my reorder.
- @lunarforge★★★★★4
Both the mugs and tumblers came out bright and clean. Communication was a little slow, but the finished bulk order more than made up for it.
- @lucas_h★★★★★5
Got a mixed bulk lot of mugs and tumblers and the consistency across all of them really impressed me. Packaging held up perfectly in transit.
- @thestudioco★★★★★5
Ordered a batch of 50 sublimated mugs for our coffee shop and the print came out sharp and full-color on every one. Boxed so carefully that not a single one was chipped.
- @pixelbyte★★★★★3
Print quality on the mugs is solid and the count was correct, but shipping took longer than I'd hoped and a couple outer boxes arrived a bit dented.
- @oliviacodes★★★★★5
Did 100 custom drinkware pieces for a corporate giveaway and they nailed our logo on every tumbler. Guests kept asking where we had them made.
- @hub7★★★★★5
The tumblers turned out gorgeous, my artwork wraps all the way around with zero fading at the seam. Whole bulk order shipped quicker than I expected.
- @dan360★★★★★4
Mugs look great and the sublimation colors really pop. A couple in the bulk lot were slightly off-center, but still totally usable so I'm happy.
- @eli_r★★★★★5
The mugs matched the design file I sent exactly, right down to the small text. Bulk pricing made it worthwhile and the whole thing was painless.
