Is your business off the beaten Path? Consider using some of these Official Business Directional Signs (OBDS) to help pull in more customers.  Permits for these signs are issued by the State Department of Transportation.  
The 12"x48" signs cost $10/year, while the 16"x72" cost $35/year for the DOT permit.
You will first need to contact the DOT for permit applications. Once these are filled out you will need to contact someone at city hall, usually the code enforcement department, to approve the location and number of signs you want. Once this is done the state will review the applications and determine the exact location of your signs. They also have the final say on which size you will use. This whole process can take several weeks, so it is advisable to get your permits in as soon as you decide you need signs.

Once you get your applications back from the state, you can now bring them to us to begin fabrication. When they are finished you will probably have to bring them to a DOT maintenance facility specified on the permit. The state will then install the signs, as well as a new post if necessary. Now just stand back and watch new customers start to roll in.

The 12" x 48" non-reflective signs usually cost around $100.00 to produce.
The 16" x 72" are quite a bit more costly, due to the reflective material that must be used for the background and lettering. These signs must be priced on an individual basis.

Give us a call and let us help you bring in more business!
