Our Story

Cheap Street Signs started in 2003 with a simple idea: public works departments, contractors, and property owners shouldn't have to pay distributor markups to get commercial-grade signs.

The business grew out of more than 35 years in the sign industry, including running a sign company and years spent working in municipal finance. That combination matters. We understand how signs are made, and we understand how they're bought: purchase orders, tax-exempt accounts, project specs, and budgets that have to stretch.

Two decades later, we've supplied signs to cities, contractors, HOAs, schools, businesses, and homeowners across the country. The goal hasn't changed. Give people the right sign, at an honest price, without a complicated process.

Commercial-Grade Materials

Built to last in real-world conditions.

Fast Turnaround

Most orders ship quickly so you get your signs when you need them.

Customer Support

Real people ready to help.

A Note from Kate

I've been around signs for most of my working life, and I've seen the buying process from both sides of the counter. I know what it's like to need a sign that meets spec, arrives on time, and fits the budget, without chasing down a sales rep to get a price.

That is exactly why I built Cheap Street Signs. If you have a question, you'll get a straight answer from someone who knows the business. And if we can't help, we'll tell you that too.

Thanks for being part of the journey.

"Cheap" Is About the Price, Not the Sign

We know the name raises an eyebrow. Here's the truth behind it.

We operate online and direct, without showrooms, outside sales teams, or regional warehouse networks. That keeps our overhead low and lets us offer the same commercial-grade materials and specifications sold by larger distributors at a more competitive price.

You're paying for the sign, not layers of overhead.

Built to Standard

Our standard traffic, parking, warning, and street name signs are made from durable .080" rust-resistant aluminum with 3M reflective sheeting in several grades:

  • Engineer Grade: reliable visibility for general-purpose applications
  • High Intensity Prismatic: brighter, longer-lasting reflectivity
  • Diamond Grade DG3: maximum visibility where it matters most

Regulatory and warning signs follow established MUTCD standards for legends, colors, shapes, and sizes. Because state and local requirements can vary, we recommend confirming your agency's specifications before ordering. We're happy to help you check.
