Q: Which places do you install the birth announcement stork signs?
We install signs in yards with topsoil or grass. It is difficult to install in yards that are heavily landscaped – those with rocks, pea gravel, concrete or mulch. We also do not install in flower beds, raised beds, garden pots, thick landscaping, or hard-packed soil used as a driveway.
We do not install our signs in non-residential areas or in front of city, county, or state-owned buildings, utility boxes, water mains or other structures. We cannot block access to these areas or we may be fined and/or our yard signs removed for blocking these areas.
Q: When should I reserve a stork sign?
We accept reservations for both scheduled birth announcements and planned events. If you want your baby announcement stork sign set up as a surprise, contact us as soon as your little one arrives, and we will do our best to deliver within 24 hours. If you submit an order form and don’t hear back promptly, feel free to call or text us at 352-339-2887 so we can confirm your reservation.
Q: How long can I rent a new baby stork yard sign?
Our standard rental period for newborn birth announcement stork signs is 7 days, giving your family plenty of time to enjoy the display. For baby showers, gender reveals, Sip & See gatherings, and other events, we also offer a two-day rental option. If you need something customized, we’re happy to discuss additional options. We charge $30 for each of the personalized sibling or pet signs. These signs are left behind as keepsakes for the family.
Q: Where will the stork sign be placed?
By default, we install your Velvet Moon Stork Rental sign in your front yard to maximize visibility and enhance your baby announcement display. If you prefer a specific location, let us know in advance and we’ll do everything we can to accommodate your request.
