Client gifts that were meant to be sorted weeks ago, a desk drop for a team starting a new financial year, or a run of your own photography for your best customers. Order and approve your artwork by 2.30pm Mon–Fri and your calendars are printed and assembled the same day, then delivered the next working day anywhere on the UK mainland. This page works out the exact dates on your clock, so what it shows is what arrives.
Each calendar is a 12-page set, one page per month in whatever order your year starts, printed single sided on 120gsm, 160gsm or 250gsm uncoated or 150gsm, 170gsm or 250gsm silk, and finished as a freestanding display for a desk. Choose A5, DL or a custom size, in runs from 10 to 250. For your own file, send a print-ready PDF with 3 mm bleed, one page per month, and approve it by the cut-off.

How next-day desk calendars work
Order and approve by 2.30pm
Choose your options, upload your artwork or finish a design online, and pay by 2.30pm Mon–Fri. Choose next-day delivery at checkout, then approve your free proof by the same time, because we print once you approve.
Printed the same day
Your 12 monthly pages print in our London print room the same afternoon, then are trimmed, collated in month order and assembled onto the freestanding base before packing.
Delivered the next working day
A tracked courier delivers the next working day anywhere on the UK mainland. Next-day delivery skips weekends and bank holidays, and the dates above already account for that. Saturday Delivery is offered at checkout, to UK mainland addresses, when your order can leave us on a Friday: order between 2.30pm on Thursday and 2.30pm on Friday, and approve your artwork by 2.30pm on Friday.

The next-day rule
Next-day delivery needs your order in, and your artwork approved, by 2.30pm Mon–Fri for delivery the next working day. Production is scheduled from your approval, not from the time you order, so orders placed or artwork approved after that, or at weekends and bank holidays, are dispatched on the next working day and arrive the working day after. Every order gets a free print preview within the hour; changes to the artwork itself are a priced service per file, back within the hour too.
Missed the 2.30pm cutoff? In London, choose the Priority courier at checkout: printed first thing on the next working day and delivered by tracked courier that day (tomorrow when you order Monday to Thursday), priced like same-day.
What counts
- Working days are Monday to Friday, excluding England and Wales bank holidays; the print room is in London.
- Next-day delivery covers the UK mainland; Highlands, Islands and Northern Ireland rates and timings are shown at checkout.
- Order and approve your artwork by the cut-off, whether it is a print-ready PDF with 3 mm bleed or a finished online design: we book production from your approval, not your payment.
- Not in a hurry? Standard delivery is free to UK mainland addresses on orders over £50 and takes 3-5 working days.
Next-day desk calendars FAQs
How should I set up desk calendar artwork for next-day delivery?
Supply a single print-ready PDF with 12 pages in month order at the finished size, A5 or DL, with 3 mm bleed on every page. The months are whatever you put on the pages, so a September start for an academic year or April for a financial year is simply a different page order.
Which paper is best for a desk calendar?
250gsm, in uncoated or silk, gives the firmest page and is the usual choice for a calendar that stands on a desk all year. 150gsm and 170gsm silk suit photographic work where colour matters most, and 120gsm and 160gsm uncoated keep the cost down for larger giveaway runs. All six stocks are in our print room, so none of them affects the next-day timing.
Are desk calendars printed on one side only?
Yes. Each of the 12 pages prints single sided, so the month you are looking at is the only thing on view and the reverse stays clean as the pages turn. Build your file as 12 single pages rather than spreads and the page count in the configurator will match it without any adjustment from us.
What is the smallest and largest run for next-day calendars?
Quantity tiers run from 10 up to 250 calendars, and every tier follows the same rule: approved by 2.30pm Mon–Fri, printed and assembled the same day, delivered the next working day. Ten calendars covers a short client list; 250 is enough for a whole office desk drop or a conference stand.
Will the calendars arrive ready to stand on a desk?
Yes. Every calendar is assembled onto its freestanding base in-house before it is packed, so the box is opened and the calendars go straight onto desks or into gift bags. Nothing needs folding, slotting or attaching at your end, which matters when they are being handed out the morning they arrive.
Can I use artwork I made with ChatGPT, Canva or another AI tool?
Yes. Every file is checked before it prints, whatever made it. AI images are often made at screen size, so on a larger print they can come out soft: if yours would, we show you which image and you choose to print it as it is, upload a sharper file, or send us the high-resolution images and our studio updates the artwork for you. You can run the same check before you order with our free file check.
What does next-day delivery cost for desk calendars?
Next-day delivery is from £9.95 +VAT to UK mainland addresses. The exact charge for your address is shown at checkout, and the product price is the same as any other day.
