We got creative with stickers, thanks to Calgary’s 5 best sticker printing shops!
I have a close friend who’s really good at art but has always been afraid to share her talent. It was only recently that she talked about wanting to start a small sticker business with her designs.
As one of the people who encouraged her to pursue this, I wanted to support her somehow. I figured that the best way to do this was to help her find a printing shop.
So, I spent a while asking other artists, looking at samples, and talking to different providers myself. Listed below are the best sticker printing shops I found in Calgary that will do your designs justice.
How much do sticker printing services cost in Calgary?
Sticker printing in Calgary usually costs around $0.51 to $0.97 per sticker. This rate depends on the size, quantity, material, and finish of the stickers.
Most printing shops typically offer discounts for this rate if you buy stickers in bulk.
1. Pixel Imaging Calgary
Address: 4451 61 Ave #8
Phone: +1 403 836 0538
Business Hours:
- Monday to Friday – 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM
- Saturday to Sunday – Closed
Plenty of locals have been going to Pixel Imaging for over a decade for their attentive customer service.
They’ll patiently share their knowledge about the different sticker materials with you. You’ll be presented with various options, such as matte or glossy finishes, so you can see what the final product looks like.
Once your stickers are done, prepare to be amazed. The image quality of their printed stickers always turns out clear and sharp.
We also tried scratching and pouring water over their stickers, but they weren’t damaged at all. We can confidently say that their products are indeed long-lasting and waterproof.
The only thing you might have to consider is their rates. Although their pricing isn’t over-the-top expensive, we think it’s better suited for established businesses or those ordering stickers in bulk.
Provided a great product
“I recently ordered 500 stickers for the Calgary Police Half Marathon. I highly recommend Pixel Imaging! They were quick to reply to my emails, had fast turnaround and a provided a great product that was exactly what we were looking for. Will use them again in the future. Much easier and cheaper than on-line alternatives.”

Very happy with how they turned out
“I’ve ordered some custom stickers and apparel for the first time by Pixel Imaging. I am very happy with how great they turned out! I’ve ordered stickers through Vista print and canva before and these are by far the best quality ones I have recieved. Thank you to John and his team, they made the whole process easy and I’m happy I can support a local business.”

2. Ask Print Shop
Address: 103 Flavelle Rd SE
Phone: +1 780 394 5059
Business Hours:
- Monday to Sunday – Open 24 hours
Ask Print Shop is known for creating stickers that can withstand the elements. Seriously, it’s been proven that these stickers can survive even the harshest Canadian winters.
But it’s not just their durability that makes them special; they’re very eye-catching, too! They can use special vinyl material for your stickers, such as holographic and gold chrome vinyl, to make them even more striking.
You don’t have to have a final design to work with them either. They offer design assistance, and all you have to do is send them reference images.
Throughout the process, they’ll be very responsive and collaborative. We especially appreciate that they send everything over for one final review before printing.
Just make sure to double-check everything before you give the go signal for shipping. Once you receive your stickers, that sale will be considered final, and they won’t entertain any return requests.
The stickers came out perfectly
“Awesome service! I had a small batch of stickers printed of my Mr. Steam logo and they came out perfectly. The price was more than competitive and the service was A+. I’ll have to come back for larger jobs in the future. Best print shop in Calgary that I’ve used yet”

3. Print Calgary
Address: 3632 Burnsland Rd SE
Phone: +1 403 235 1616
Business Hours:

- Saturday to Sunday – Closed
Print Calgary is where many small businesses go when they’re just starting out. The experts at this print shop take the time to guide customers and help them decide on what works for their stickers.
They’re also very hands-on with their products. Even though they deal with bulk orders a lot, they still ensure that each individual piece comes out perfectly.
We think customers will enjoy choosing among the variety of stickers they offer. Depending on what you need, they offer roll stickers for businesses, transparent stickers for special designs, and die-cut stickers for art with unique outlines.
And if you have any questions, they’ll happily answer. Even when you’re out of the store, you can just shoot them a message, and they always respond lightning-fast.
Unfortunately, some customers have complained about their projected timelines not being met. Despite most clients being happy with their turnaround time, there have been a few occasions when they’ve been late.
Very satisfying and smooth experience
“Very satisfying and smooth experience with Print Calgary. Salman at the front desk helped a lot in defining the sizes and colours for my stickers. As a first timer at this I didnt had much idea about ordering these items. Delivery was as expected on time and as per the quoted prices.”
-Prashant Kumar, Google Review
My experience was nothing but amazing
“I needed some last minute stickers for my business and upon contacting Earl at Print Calgary my experience was nothing but amazing! The turn around was extremely fast took less than 2 days, and they turned out perfect. Earl was very knowledgeable and informative when answering all of the questions I had to ensure I had the perfect product! 10/10! This will be my go-to place for business stickers and future products!”

4. Artech Printing & Signs
Address: 4600 17 Ave SE
Phone: +1 403 248 6621
Business Hours:
- Monday to Friday – 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM
Since 1988, Artech Printing & Signs has been the go-to printing shop for businesses of all sizes.
They’ve worked with companies in multiple industries, including construction, restaurant, and real estate. This means they know what can make your designs stand out for a variety of audiences.
But despite them being established, they still have some of the best prices in the city. All of the customers that we asked agree that their rates are more competitive than others.
It’s also great that they can create different types of stickers, depending on what you need. They can make label rolls, water-resistant stickers, die-cut stickers, and more.
The one drawback that comes with working with them is that they take 5 to 7 days to process orders. So, those who need their stickers fast might have to consider another printing shop.
The stickers look great!
“I asked them to make me some vinyl stickers with my email address on them, they look great ,finished them fast and the price was great. Would definitely recommend these guys!”
-Mark Smith, Google Review
Totally nailed the whole vibe of my vision
“Booming with creativity & knowledge…Wow, these jar labels came out seriously cool! The colors are super vibrant, and the designs are just so eye-catching. Totally nailed the whole vibe of my vision & company itself, I have no doubt to put my trust in whole projects…Awesome work!”

5. Little Rock Printing
Address: 2222 Portland St SE
Phone: +1 403 269 7022
Business Hours:
- Monday to Thursday – 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM
- Friday to Sunday – Closed
Little Rock Printing can practically create any type of promotional item that a company needs. This is why they’ve been going strong for over 30 years.
One of the things that makes them amazing is that they can ship any order in as fast as 2 days. And this is without an extra charge, which we’re sure many customers will appreciate.
We also included them in this list because they provide free samples and test prints. This will help you decide on how you want your stickers to look.
Apart from this, it’s so convenient that they don’t have a minimum order. Whatever type of sticker you need — whether it’s a roll label, a custom die-cut sticker, or a clear sticker — you’re allowed to order as little as one unit.
However, their customer service does need a bit of improvement. We’ve heard a few complaints from clients saying they haven’t received a response in a few days.
Definitely will be recommending this company
“I had some vinyl stickers made to make custom wine labels for a wedding, I absolutely love them. Their prices are very reasonable, website is super easy to navigate and the quality of the prints are fantastic. Their customer service is top notch! They are very communicative and even finished my order before the projected date! Definitely will be recommending this company!”

The service and end product were incredible
“Little Rock Printing is the best printing service I’ve ever used. I did a bunch of printing (cards, poster boards and stickers) with them for a friend’s wedding and the service and end-product was incredible. So many customizations available to get exactly what you need. Thank you Little Rock Printing for everything you do!”
