How Rush Custom Button Turnaround Works
Rush is a shop priority slot — not a universal same-day promise. Here is how cutoffs, artwork, and fulfillment affect your deadline.
Rush custom buttons are for orders that cannot wait for standard production queues. At BigDogButtons by Copyland, rush availability depends on shop capacity, order size, and the cutoff time for the day — not a generic "24-hour" promise on every SKU.
Use the rush custom buttons service page for current tiers, then confirm timing in the configurator before checkout.
What counts as rush
Rush is a production priority flag — your job moves ahead of standard orders at the Copyland shop fulfilling the line items. It does not skip artwork review when a proof is required.
Typical rush candidates: last-minute rally supplies, trade show booth gaps, and replacement batches for misprints. For planned programs with fixed ship dates, compare rush fees against an earlier standard order on event buttons or campaign buttons.
Cutoff times and shop days
Rush cutoffs align with Copyland shop hours in West LA, Gardena, and Burbank. Orders placed after the daily cutoff roll to the next production window. Saturday hours are shorter — confirm the calendar in checkout if your event is Monday morning.
Pickup vs. shipping on rush jobs
Local pickup at a Copyland shop removes carrier transit from the timeline. If you are in Los Angeles County, compare pickup against expedited shipping — pickup often wins for same-week events.
Shipped rush orders still depend on carrier pickup scans and destination zone. Build one business day of transit buffer even on expedited service.
Quantity and SKU limits
Very large rush quantities may split across production runs or require standard turnaround regardless of tier. The configurator and stock check reflect what the shop can fulfill in the selected window.
For high-volume programs without a hard event date, standard production on bulk custom buttons usually costs less per piece and spreads quality control across a normal queue.
Frequently asked questions
- Does rush guarantee same-day pickup?
- Not for every SKU or quantity. Availability is calculated from shop load and cutoff time. Confirm the date shown in the configurator before paying.
- Can I rush a bulk order of 5,000 buttons?
- Large quantities may exceed same-week rush capacity. The configurator will show standard timelines when rush tiers are unavailable.
- What if my artwork fails proof review?
- Production pauses until revised files are approved. Rush clocks do not skip artwork quality checks — submit print-ready art to protect your deadline.
