Frequently Asked Questions
What are the steps to get started with Heirloom?
Getting started with Heirloom is simple. Choose a secure Heirloom shipping box, print a prepaid label to use your own box, self-ship, or deliver your items in person. Once your media arrives, Heirloom inspects everything, sends you an itemized quote, and begins digitizing after your approval.
Do I need to count or label my items before sending them?
No counting, labeling, or organizing is required. You can send everything as-is, even if it’s mixed formats or loosely packed. Heirloom’s specialists carefully identify, classify, and count each item for you.
What happens after Heirloom receives my media?
After your media arrives, it is securely checked in, inspected, and professionally assessed. You’ll receive a clear, itemized quote based on exactly what can be digitized. Once approved, Heirloom begins the digitization process using professional equipment and careful handling.
What happens if something can’t be digitized?
After a same-day inspection, Heirloom specialists only include items in your quote that can be repaired and at least partially digitized. All viable media is quoted transparently, but any items later determined to be completely blank are automatically credited back—something most services don’t do. You only pay for media where real memories can be preserved.
How do I receive my digitized files?
Your digitized memories are delivered to your private Heirloom account, where you can start viewing, downloading, and sharing them as soon as they’re ready. Your secure digital vault is included free for the first 90 days, with optional annual cloud storage starting at just $9.99 per year. For offline access or gifting, you can also order USB flash drives containing all of your memories.
Can I share my digitized files with others at no cost to them?
Yes. You can share your digitized memories with an unlimited number of family members and friends, and they never have to pay to view, enjoy, or keep copies of what you share. Everyone you share with gets free access in their own Heirloom account, with unlimited space for received memories—no subscriptions, paywalls, or hidden fees.
How are my digitized memories kept safe online?
Your memories are stored in a secure, redundant cloud environment designed to prevent loss. Content is private by default—only you control who can access or share it. You can download your files anytime, ensuring your memories are never trapped or held hostage.
