Birth announcement sign rentals · Huntington, WV

The moment they pull into the driveway, the whole street already knows.

We plant an 8-foot stork in the front yard — dressed in blue or pink, holding a bundle that announces "It's a Boy!" or "It's a Girl!" (or step up to a fully personalized bundle with baby's name and stats). Seven joyful days, zero effort on your part.

Why a stork

A card gets opened once. A flamingo is expected. An 8-foot stork stops traffic.

This is the gift for the dad who wants his wife to cry a little when she pulls in. The grandparents who live too far to help but want the neighborhood to know anyway. The friend who's out of casserole ideas.

Bigger than a card

Flowers wilt and balloons deflate by day three. This is a full week of "wait, is that — it is!" from every car that drives by.

Zero work for you

Book online, tell us the details, and we handle delivery, setup, and pickup. You don't lift a single stake.

A photo they'll keep

We photograph the sign in the yard and post it for you to share — an easy, ready-made way to spread the news.

Made for your family

Siblings become big brothers and sisters. Dogs and cats get demoted too. We've got a sign for the whole household.

How it works

From "she's in labor" to a stork in the yard.

Good to know

Questions, answered.

How far in advance should I book? +

Whenever you can — even the day of. We ask for 24 hours' notice when possible, but our next-day install add-on covers you if the baby beat the calendar.

What areas do you serve? +

We're based in Huntington, WV and deliver free of charge within 35 miles — including towns like Barboursville, Milton, Ona, Culloden, Hurricane, Teays Valley, Kenova, Ceredo, Wayne, Ashland (KY), Catlettsburg (KY), Ironton (OH), South Point (OH), Chesapeake (OH) and Proctorville (OH). Not sure if you're in range? Enter your address in the booking form and we'll check it for you automatically.

Is there a delivery fee outside the free zone? +

Yes — the first 35 miles from Huntington, WV are always free. Beyond that: $25 for 36–50 miles, $50 for 51–75 miles, and $75 plus $0.50 per additional mile beyond 75. When you enter your address during booking, we'll check your distance and show any fee before you pay — no surprises.

What happens if it rains or storms? +

Our signs are built for the outdoors and weather just fine. In severe weather, we may temporarily lay the sign down for safety and re-stand it once it passes — no charge to you.

Can I add balloons or bows? +

Yes! A balloon cluster, a mailbox bow, and a door bow are all available as add-ons in the package builder above — dress up the whole entrance, not just the yard.

What's the difference between the two bundle options? +

The Classic bundle simply reads "It's a Boy!" or "It's a Girl!" The Personalized bundle is hand-lettered with baby's name, weight, length and birth date — and since it becomes a true keepsake, you automatically get to keep it (no separate keep-the-bundle charge).

What if I need to cancel or reschedule? +

[Cancellation policy placeholder — e.g., full refund if canceled 48+ hours before drop-off, credit toward a future rental otherwise.]

Do you post our photo publicly? +

Yes, by default we share the sign photo on our social pages so you have something easy to share with family and friends. Prefer to keep it private? Just let us know in your booking notes.
