Digitization Pricing

Transparent pricing with a strong focus on quality, careful handling, and professional transfer equipment.

Most transfers are $10 per item, with pricing adjusted based on format, length, and special handling. A minimum project charge of $40 applies, but smaller projects are always welcome — just ask.

Extremely low-cost transfer services often rely on inexpensive hardware and minimal processing. Our approach focuses on quality capture, proper cleanup, and reliable long-term digital files.
