A flag moves, and movement gets noticed. That's why car washes, dealerships and new shops line the curb with them. A pair of tall flags tells people you're open, where to turn in, and what's on today, before they've read any other sign.

Every flag kit comes with the printed flag, the pole and the base you pick. Your artwork is printed in full color, checked by a real person, and shipped free anywhere in the US.

Shop custom flags

Our rectangle flags have a straight top and sides, so you get the most room for your logo, a short message and a phone number or web address.

Choosing height and sides

8.5 ft

Good for sidewalks, store entrances, indoor lobbies and event booths where space is tight or ceilings are low.

11.8 ft

The all-around size. Tall enough to see over parked cars, easy to move and set up.

15 ft

For busy roads, big lots and wide-open spaces where you need to be seen from far away.

Not sure? Most businesses start with the 11.8 ft flag. If you want to be seen from a fast road, go with 15 ft.

Which side do people see?

A single-sided flag is printed on one side, which works well for logos and simple graphics. If your flag has words and people will see it from both directions, choose double-sided so the text reads correctly on both sides.

  • Single-sided: logos, simple graphics, one main viewing side
  • Double-sided: words, phone numbers, traffic from both directions
  • Keep text short: one to three words reads best

Picking the right base

Choose your base by the ground the flag will stand on.

Base Best surface How it works Good for
Ground stake Grass, dirt, soft ground Push the stake into the ground and slide the pole on Lawns, roadside strips, outdoor events
Cross base + water bag Pavement, concrete, parking lots The cross base sits flat, and the filled water bag adds weight Car washes, dealerships, storefronts
Square base Indoor and hard floors A flat, heavy plate that sits on the floor Lobbies, showrooms, trade shows

Tip. Bring flags in during strong winds and storms. They'll look better and last longer.

Design tips for flags

People see a flag for a few seconds from a moving car, so simple wins. Use big, bold letters that run down the length of the flag, and pick colors with strong contrast, like white on red or yellow on black. Put your logo near the top where it's least likely to be hidden by the flag folding. Skip small print, long sentences and fine details. If you have more to say, add an A-frame sidewalk sign near the door for the details.

Where custom flags work best

  • Car washes: "Open," "Car Wash" or "Wash Today" by the entrance so drivers turn in.
  • Dealerships: a row of brand flags along the front of the lot.
  • Grand openings: flags by the curb so people know something new is here. See grand opening signs.
  • Events: mark the start line, the entrance or sponsor areas. See event signs.
  • Real estate and open houses: point drivers to the right street.
  • Restaurants and shops: remind passersby you're open for lunch, takeout or a sale.

Custom flag FAQ

Does the flag come with a pole and base?

Yes. Each rectangle flag includes the printed flag, the pole and the base you choose.

Which base should I pick for a parking lot?

Choose the cross base with a water bag. It sits flat on pavement, and the water bag adds weight to keep the flag steady.

Can I use a flag indoors?

Yes. Pick the square base for hard floors, and the 8.5 ft height usually fits best under a normal ceiling.

Should I get single or double-sided?

If your flag has words and people will see it from both directions, get double-sided. For a logo or simple graphic, single-sided often works fine.

What should I put on my flag?

Keep it short. One to three big words, or a bold logo, reads best on a moving flag. Read how to design a readable sign.

What if something is wrong with my flag?

Tell us within 14 days of delivery and we'll reprint it free or give you store credit.
