Reel to Reel Conversion

Send all your media—we’ll sort, count, and send a clear invoice with pricing as below. Your memories are permanently preserved and streaming from your secure digital vault within days of making payment.

Convert Reels to Digital Now

Reel to reel media wasn’t made to last. Your 8mm & 16mm films and magnetic tapes will go bad, with playback becoming impossible. Precious moments are lost forever the longer you wait. Heirloom makes it simple to convert reeled media to digital so you can rescue your memories before it's too late.

8mm Film to Digital Preserved on the Cloud

Stream, Share, or Download

In less than two weeks, your digitized memories will be ready to stream from your Heirloom digital vault. Share with unlimited people or download portable files to keep offline. Unlike DVDs, where discs get scratched or lost, our redundant cloud storage ensures your memories will never go bad.

Why DVDs Are Outdated

DVD was once the gold standard—but plastic discs degrade too. They scratch, rot, and can’t be shared easily. Heirloom gives you a modern solution: beautiful digital memories you can stream, share, or download anytime, from anywhere, on any device.

Casey is amazing! I found this company on google so I called and spoke to Casey about what I had and what I was looking for and she was SO helpful and just the sweetest person! I dropped off a couple VHS tapes and a week later I had access to them! I loved how easy the process was and how affordable it was. Thank you so much!!

Thank you Heirloom for your excellent work. Casey was great and helped me to navigate the process. I sent our wedding video from 1988 and it was completed by Heirloom within a couple of days. I did not expect such a quick and efficient service. My wife is quite ill and I wanted her to go back to that special day and see again all those friends and relatives who are no longer with us. You made that possible so, again, I thank you.

This was the easiest decision I've ever made. Heirloom provides a safe and affordable way to ship your memories to them to be recorded on the cloud, and then get the files back home to you. It's a brilliant idea and an incredible service. Thank you, Heirloom.
