Before you order
Common questions
Where should an agency start?
The [government and courts page](/pages/government-courtroom-podiums) walks through council chambers, courtrooms, and press rooms and how a public purchase works. This collection is the full list of podiums picked for government use.
What podium do city councils use?
Council chambers most often get a hardwood lectern like the Royal, the Conquest, or the Celebrity, in a choice of stains, with the city seal applied. Agencies that hold public meetings in multipurpose rooms go with the VH1 Deluxe aluminum podium or a sound lectern.
Can you apply our seal?
Yes. Send it as a vector file (.eps, .ai or .pdf) and we'll apply or engrave it and send a proof before production.
How does a public agency purchase?
Request a written quote, route it through procurement, and send the purchase order when it clears. We supply a W-9 on request and apply tax-exempt certificates to the order.
