✦ good to know
Tiny questions.
Easy answers.
The little things parents ask right before hitting buy. Still stuck? We’re one Etsy message away.
Ask on Etsy ↗Is the animated mobile e-vite really included?
Yes. Along with the printable 5 x 7 trash bash invitation you get an animated mobile e-vite you can send by text, WhatsApp, or email, so digital guests get a moving garbage truck invite, not just a flat picture.
Can I edit this trash bash invitation on my phone?
Yes. It opens in the free Canva app and basic phone editing is supported, so you can change the name and details from your phone and send it the same day.
What can I change, and what is fixed?
You can edit all text, fonts, colors, and the background, and add your own photo. The document size and orientation and the truck graphics are fixed, so the layout stays clean while your wording changes.
Will anything be mailed to me?
No. This is a digital file only. Nothing is shipped. You download and print or send the garbage truck party invitation yourself.
How do I print it at home or at a shop?
Download the PDF with crop marks and bleed. Print at home on cardstock, or send the PDF to a print shop. To print two per page, duplicate the page in Canva, download, then choose two pages per sheet in Adobe Acrobat.
Can I use this for any age or a different event?
Yes. Every line of text is editable, so it works for a 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or any birthday, and you can reword it for a baby brunch or other celebration.
