Three simple steps

Preservation, simplified.

  1. Step 01

    Fill your box

    No need to sort or count every item. Just pack it with your tapes, film, and photos, and we'll take it from there.

  2. Step 02

    We do the rest

    Our team carefully tracks, handles, and digitizes each tape, reel, and photo at our secure facility.

  3. Step 03

    Relive the past

    Your originals are returned safely, along with a beautiful digital collection ready to watch and share.

How items are counted

What counts as one item

Item counts vary by format. One tape, reel, or audio cassette counts as one item, while 25 printed photos count as one.

Thank you Legacybox. You have brought me back my memories from when my boys were 8 and 10, and my twins were born!

Legacybox is the best thing I ever spent money on... It was an overwhelming experience that I had thought was hidden or lost forever. Trust these folks, you wont be sorry. Their work is impeccable.

What's an "item"?

An "item" can be 3 different things: 1 tape, 1 reel, or 1 set of 25 photos. You can mix and match to include all of those different types in one box!

We count the number of items, regardless of how big, small, long, or short the item is. A tape that has 5 hours of content is counted the same as one that has 5 minutes.

What if I have a number of items in between your box sizes?

We've got you covered! With each box, we allow the option to add "additional items". When you receive your box, you'll see two types of item barcodes: ones that say "Included Item $0" and another that says "Add Item $17.99".

You can use the second type of barcodes to add to your box! They are charged at $17.99 and we'll email you an invoice once those items arrive to us and we take an inventory of everything.

Will you restore, enhance, or improve my items in any way?

We always try to get the best quality conversion possible. However, the quality of the transfer ultimately depends on the quality of the original items. We do not offer any sort of restoration, enhancement, or editing of your items.

To be more specific, we do not offer the following: color correction, brightening, HD remastering, combining footage, or otherwise altering the composition of the original media.

Do you convert sound on film?

While we convert 8mm, super 8, and 16mm of various sizes, unfortunately, it is not part of our process to digitize sound on film.

In our experience, 99% of film was recorded as silent. If you'd like any more information about this, contact our customer service team!
