A small poster campaign

Our published starter estimate is from $500 for 100 full-color 8.5 × 11-inch posters, printing, one installation round in one agreed local area, and completion photos. That is a defined small-format scope, not a promise of 100 different walls or a two-week display period.

Costs change when you choose a larger poster, add several neighborhoods, need multiple installation rounds, or request removal, premium location access, or a fuller location report. Final availability and permission for each proposed surface must be checked before booking.

These are arithmetic examples using the site's starting size rates, not fixed packages for every city. Quantity, print specifications, travel, permissions, route, surfaces, applicable taxes, and scheduling can change a written quote.

Posters and locations are different numbers

A design repeated twice on each approved surface uses two posters per location. In that layout, 100 posters could cover around 50 placements if every location accepts exactly two. Actual location count depends on the approved route and site conditions; it must be written into the scope separately.

Ask for the full scope

State the city and neighborhood priorities, size, number of designs, total quantity, whether artwork is print ready, and the latest useful installation date. Say whether you already have printed posters. Ask for the number of installation rounds, completion-photo format, any location list, and the price of an optional removal or revisit.

Wheatpasting pricing questions

Is printing included in the $500 starting estimate?

Yes, for the stated 100-poster 8.5 × 11-inch starter scope. Installation only and larger formats need their own written quote.

Can I pay for 100 posters and request 100 separate locations?

Poster quantity does not establish location quantity. Tell us the number of locations you need, and we will assess available authorized sites and route costs.

Does the quote guarantee that posters stay up for two weeks?

No. Weather, surface condition, removal, cleaning, and other activity affect outdoor display. Ask for monitoring or another installation round if duration matters.

Can I supply the printing?

Yes. Send material, size, and quantity details so we can quote installation and check suitability before the job.
