Every tape is somebody's Christmas morning.
First steps, wedding speeches, the holiday where it rained all week. We handle each tape like it's our own family's, then hand it back as files you can actually watch.
- A folder per tape, one video per filming day, in date order.
- Colour and sound checked on every tape by a real person.
- Download link and a USB stick in the post, both included.
- Blank or won't play? We refund that tape.
- Your tapes come back free in the same parcel, or we securely dispose of them. Your choice.

Tapes fade a little every year, and working players are getting harder to find. The sooner they're copied, the better they look.so let's not leave them in the loft

How long does it take?
Most orders are finished within 5 working days of your tapes arriving. We message you when they arrive and again when your videos are ready.
Is there a length limit?
No. A 3-hour VHS costs the same as a 20-minute one.
Do I get my tapes back?
Yes if you want them. Choose "returned" when you order and they come back in the same parcel as your USB stick at no extra cost. Or choose "securely disposed" and we destroy them for you.
What if a tape is mouldy or damaged?
Tell us when you order or we'll spot it when it arrives. We always message you before doing anything to a damaged tape.
Can you copy shop-bought films?
No. We only transfer home recordings.
