If you’re unsure what type of tape or film reel you have, feel free to reach out and we can take a look and let you know!
All formats are transferred to your choice of DVD or digital file on a USB or hard drive. You can supply the hard drive or USB yourself or purchase one from us. Pickup and/or drop-off is also available anywhere in Waterloo Region for $20.
