Our Process
Our process is very straightforward. You get your items together, we provide an estimate, and once we meet to get your items we get started. Once we’re done you’ll get your unlocked memories back.
1
GATHER YOUR ITEMS
The first thing you need to do is gather all of the media that you want us to help you with. Once you have all of your tapes, discs, photos, and what you’d like us to do ready we can move to step 2.

CONTACT ADAM FOR AN ESTIMATE
Once you have you items gathered fill out our online form (below) to let us know what you’re looking for. Adam will review your request and put together an estimate for your project. We do ask that you pay for half of the estimate to get started.

WE GET TO WORK
Once you accept the estimate and provide the 50% payment we’ll get started on your project. You will be provided with a link to a dashboard to see the progress of your project.

WE RETURN YOUR MEMORIES
Once we’re done we’ll deliver your memories back to you based on your delivery preference.
