Geoff Weber Geoff Weber Published

How Much Does Legacybox Cost?

As of September 23, 2026, Legacybox listed five prepaid package sizes:

A 2 item "Starter" for $69.98, or $34.99 per item. A 10 item "Family" for $319.98, or $32.00 per item. A 20 item "Closet" for $639.98, or $32.00 per item. A 40 item "Trunk" for $1,249.98, or $31.25 per item. An 80 item "Vault" for $2,499.98, or $31.25 per item.

These are the published prices before any applicable promotion. Legacybox was also advertising up to $600 off when these prices were checked. Promotions can change quickly, so verify the final checkout price rather than relying on an earlier advertisement.

Each package includes the box, instructions, barcodes, a prepaid return label, digitizing and digital delivery through the Legacybox app free for 30 days.

What Counts as One Legacybox Item?

Legacybox defines one item as:

  • One videotape
  • One film reel
  • One audio reel
  • One audio cassette
  • One set of 25 photo prints
  • One set of 25 slides
  • One set of 25 negatives

Different media types can be combined inside the same box. A 10-item package, for example, could contain five tapes, two film reels and 75 photographs.

Each film reel counts as one item regardless of its length, provided it meets Legacybox’s size and format requirements. Each image on a negative strip counts toward the group of 25 photographs.

This system is straightforward when the collection has already been counted and identified. It is less convenient when someone inherits an unsorted box containing unfamiliar tapes, reels, photographs and damaged media.

DON’T GUESS WHAT’S IN THE BOX

Pay for What You Actually Have

Heirloom inspects your media before providing an itemized, no-obligation quote. You do not have to identify everything yourself, and you also don't have to pay for rejected items.

Do Legacybox Discounts Show the Total Cost?

A Legacybox promotion can reduce the package price substantially. The real comparison should still include everything the project may require.

Possible costs include:

  • The prepaid Legacybox package
  • Additional items beyond the package limit
  • Optional thumb drives
  • Optional DVD or CD sets
  • Rush processing
  • Shipping protection
  • Continued online membership
  • A second digitizing service for rejected media

Additional invoices may also be generated for thumb drives or disc sets. Confirm the current extra-item rate before shipping because prices and promotions can change.

Legacybox Membership Cost

Each new package includes a free 30-day Legacybox Membership trial. Legacybox’s published Family Membership rates are currently:

  • $7.99 per month
  • $79.99 per year
  • $19.99 quarterly for existing quarterly members only

The company says customers can download their files, manage the membership or cancel through their account. Continued membership is not necessary if you download and safely back up all files before access ends.

A temporary discount on digitizing should be evaluated separately from optional recurring storage charges.

How Should You Compare the Real Cost?

Start by counting every tape, reel, cassette and group of photographs. Then separate anything that appears molded, broken, unusually large or difficult to identify.

Compare:

  1. The price paid before shipping
  2. The number of items actually sent
  3. Charges for items beyond the package limit
  4. Optional delivery and storage costs
  5. Paying to digitize blank tapes
  6. Items rejected for mold or lack of expertise
  7. The risk of paying another company to finish rejected items

Legacybox can be economical during a strong promotion when the collection fits neatly into one package and every item is accepted.

A low price per box is only useful when it preserves the memories that were inside it.

What Families Say About Heirloom


Heirloom may provide better value when the collection is unsorted, contains difficult media or requires an inspection before the family can understand its actual cost.

I rushed to leave a review!

My tapes were MOLDY. Like, REALLY bad. I honestly didn't think they could be salvaged, but I sent them to Heirloom just to see. They gave me a call once the tapes arrived to let me know that it would be difficult, but they were going to do everything they could. And folks, they DID!! My videos are here! I'm literally crying! I never thought I would see this footage again.
