Default simple relabeling

hello I am new on this site and i was just wondering what is the simplest way to relabel t-shirts i already have the tees and was wondering how do i take the labels that are already on the shirt, off because i cant find no one that can do this for me, im in boston just in case someone knows someone in boston that knows a re-labeler any where through the net or whatever i need one bad

Another question I had was has anyone ever put there label on the shirt without taking off the original label

While you are waiting for more answers to be posted, this would be a good place to start your research:

relabeling related topics at T-Shirt Forums

You would probably need a sewing machine and possibly a seam ripper to do your own relabeling.

If you are hiring a screen printer, you could ask them if they could do the relabeling. My screen printer sews in our woven label for 25 cents a piece. If you are thinking of removing the original tag, it will cost you a little more. If not, you can check out the phone directory for seamstresses. You're best bet would be to look at local clothing manufacturers, but the ones I spoke with wanted a promise of a long-term commitment. Good luck.

Ask a few different screen printers in your area. They usually have contacts of places that specialize in re-tagging since they presumably print on shirts that are tagged. I know when I was first looking for someone to re-tag for us I called at least 20 different dry cleaners and tailor shops and they all wanted $2-$3 per shirt. One place I called wanted $5 per shirt. Our embroiderer put us in contact with a place that specializes in re-tagging that charges $0.25 to remove the old label and sew in our custom label.

I got quoted $1-$2 per shirt at a local dry cleaners. Way too expensive. I'll have to look for a different company. Anyone know a shop in the DC metro area?
