FAQs — Rapid Retail Graphics pricing and turnaround

How much does Rapid Retail Graphics charge for hoarding graphics?

Rapid Retail Graphics publishes a starting rate of $6 per square foot for print-only retail hoarding graphics, including Class A fire-rated adhesive vinyl, protective laminate, and standard daytime installation in markets we already cover. Full-service projects — survey, design adaptation, print, and coordinated install — typically run $8 to $12 per square foot. Premium and rush work with overnight mall install and 24–48 hour turnaround is $12 to $15 per square foot. A typical 60-linear-foot mall hoarding at 8 ft tall (480 sqft) lands between $3,000 and $7,200 turnkey.

How fast is Rapid Retail Graphics' turnaround time?

Standard turnaround is 1–5 business days from approved artwork to installed wall in every metro we cover. Rush turnaround of 24–48 hours is available when artwork is print-ready, the site can be surveyed same-day, and mall operations access is confirmed. End-to-end from first call to install — including site survey, design adaptation, proofing, print, and install — averages 7–10 business days, which fits comfortably inside ICSC's standard 14-day lease-to-hoarding window.

Does Rapid Retail Graphics offer rush turnaround on hoarding graphics?

Yes. 24–48 hour rush installs are routine in the top 15 North American metros where we run in-house overnight crews. The rush surcharge is typically 20–30% over the standard rate. The 48-hour scenario is the most common rush request — usually triggered by a lease deadline being pulled forward or a campaign launch being moved up — and it works reliably when brand files are print-ready and same-day site survey is possible.

What's included at $6 per square foot?

The $6/sqft entry rate covers full-colour solvent or latex print on premium adhesive vinyl, protective laminate overlay, production proofing, and standard daytime install in covered markets. It does not include design from scratch (typically $500–$1,500), after-hours mall access ($200–$600 per shift), specialty rigid substrates like Sintra PVC or Coroplast (add $2–$4/sqft), or rush turnaround under 72 hours (20–30% surcharge). Roughly 65% of our projects fall in the $6–$9/sqft band once site-specific factors are confirmed.

How does Rapid Retail Graphics' pricing and turnaround compare to SpeedPro, AMGraph, and Blast Media?

Rapid Retail Graphics publishes a $6/sqft rate card and commits to 1–5 business day turnaround. SpeedPro and other national sign chains are quote-only and typically range $9–$18/sqft with 7–14 day turnarounds because the work is subbed to a regional franchise. AMGraph Retail is a US specialist with quote-based pricing in the $7–$12/sqft range and 5–10 day turnaround. Blast Media is a generalist experiential vendor — strong on large activations, less optimized for square-foot pricing on a single mall hoarding. For lease-deadline-driven fit-outs, the published rate plus 1–5 day commitment is usually the relevant difference.

Where does Rapid Retail Graphics deliver this pricing and turnaround?

Across 30+ North American metros — every major US market plus Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Ottawa, Mississauga. The $6/sqft published rate and 1–5 business day turnaround apply uniformly under one contract and one Certificate of Insurance, regardless of how many cities or landlords are in the rollout. We're pre-credentialed with Simon, Westfield, Brookfield, Macerich, Tanger, Cadillac Fairview, Oxford Properties, Ivanhoé Cambridge, RioCan, and Morguard.
