Custom yard signs

Yard signs are often made of corrugated plastic or Coroplast. They are 4 mm thick, durable, recyclable, and able to stand up to outdoor elements like rain and sunlight. 

Yard signs measure 24 x 18 inches in landscape printing format, which is the standard size for most lawn signs. These are the ideal dimensions to capture people’s attention in busy areas. Our custom yard signs also include a free metal stake or H stand, that you can mount to the ground.

Our yard signs are tailored for outdoor use, so they’re made of fade-resistant and weather-resistant corrugated plastic. If you are concerned about the effect of rain on your sign, we suggest removing it to prevent any damage you feel may occur from heavy moisture exposure.

From real estate to transit advertising and even birthday signage, here are a few simple tips to create the best yard sign:

• Keep your design simple and avoid overcrowding with fonts or images.
• Use contrasting colors in your design.
• Make sure any message you have is clear, short, and catchy. 
• If you can add rhyme or rhythm to your message, it’ll be far more memorable.
• Choose fonts that are easy to read. Font sizes of at least 14pt work best.

The best place to put your yard sign is any visible spot outside. You want to make an impact—so make sure bushes, trees, and cars won’t block the view of your sign. 

Put your yard sign in a highly visible area, preferably with lots of vehicle and foot traffic. Make sure that no bush or tree is blocking your signage. Check local laws, too, to verify if you’re allowed to place signs in public areas. If you created multiple yard signs, place them every 600 feet or so.

Reminder, our yard signs come with free metal stakes or H stands, so they are easy to push and mount unto soft ground. However, if you wish to create wall signages or displays instead, check out and order our custom banners⁠(opens in a new tab or window) (which come with grommets) and canvas prints⁠(opens in a new tab or window) instead.

Yes, lawn signs and yard signs are the same, and the two terms are often used interchangeably. Both signages can be used outdoors, indoors, or as wall displays for advertising businesses or campaigns, promoting events, or giving directions.
