Memories Preservation Bundle
Description
The Heirloom Memories Preservation Bundle makes preserving your family's history simple.

Choose the box size that fits your collection, pack your memories, and drop it off at any UPS Store using the included prepaid shipping label. When digitization is complete, your memories are professionally organized and delivered on a Backup Flash Drive, ready to enjoy, share, and preserve for generations.

Why Prepay for a Backup Flash Drive?
Many customers decide they want a backup flash drive after digitization is complete.
By including it now, you'll receive:
- An offline backup of your memories
- Clearly organized digital folders
- Easy playback on many computers and Smart TVs
- A portable copy to share with family
- Peace of mind knowing your memories exist in more than one place
Combined with your private Heirloom cloud, it's an excellent preservation strategy.
A Complete Preservation Experience
Unlike many digitizing services, Heirloom doesn't require you to count your media or pay for digitization before anyone inspects it.
When your shipment arrives, Heirloom specialists:
- Identify every media format
- Inventory every item
- Inspect each item for condition
- Recommend the appropriate digitizing services
- Email a detailed, no-obligation quote the same day
Only after you've approved the quote do we begin preserving your memories.
What makes the Shipping Box + USB Bundle different?
This option includes everything in a standard Heirloom shipping box plus a prepaid USB flash drive. It ensures you’ll receive a physical copy of all your digitized memories without needing to place a separate order later.
Why should I prepay for a USB flash drive?
Many customers intend to add a USB later and forget. Prepaying guarantees your digitized memories are delivered on a USB automatically, saving time and avoiding a second purchase or delay.
What will be included on the USB flash drive?
The USB contains all digitized files from your order—videos, photos, audio, and films—organized and ready for offline viewing, sharing, gifting, or safekeeping.
When will I receive the USB flash drive?
Your USB is prepared after digitization is complete and shipped with your completed order. Delivery timing aligns with your finalized digitizing and return shipment.
Is the USB required to access my memories?
No. All digitized memories are also available in your secure Heirloom cloud account. The USB is an optional physical backup, ideal for offline access or gifting.
How much content can the USB hold?
Each USB flash drive can hold up to 256 hours of video, depending on file type and resolution, with plenty of space for photos and audio included in your order.
Can I order additional USB flash drives later?
Yes. While this bundle includes one USB in advance, you can order additional USB flash drives up to 90 days after digitization is completed if you’d like extra copies for family members or safekeeping.
The Safest Way to Ship Your Memories
Heirloom’s expertly designed shipping boxes keep your VHS tapes, film reels, and photos safe from start to finish.
Secure, reliable, and built for protection. Here’s why we set the gold standard in media shipping.
DOT-Approved Shipping Solution
Heirloom corrugated cardboard boxes are meticulously crafted to meet US Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations, ensuring they're secure for transporting delicate media. This superior design means your materials are protected against all the rigors of shipping. Trust Heirloom-designed boxes to safely transport your precious media for digitizing.
Choose a Box to Fit Your Media
Each box is designed to fit a variety of media items, so mix and match as needed!
Small Heirloom Shipping Box
Holds up to 10 VHS tapes or a mix of items. Comes with two waterproof (3 mil) bags and 0.25 cubic feet of packing peanuts. Great for an initial order, fitting a variety of outdated types of media.
Medium Heirloom Shipping Box
Holds up to 35 VHS tapes or various media formats. Comes with three waterproof (3 mil) bags and 0.75 cubic feet of packing peanuts. Fits standard size photo albums.
Large Heirloom Shipping Box
Holds up to 120 VHS tapes or a combination of items. Comes with three oversize waterproof (3 mil) bags and 2.25 cubic feet of packing peanuts. Great for scrapbooks and photo slide carousels!
Real Time Tracking
Never lose sight of your shipment with real-time tracking from the United Parcel Service (UPS). Heirloom knows exactly when a UPS agent scans the receipt of your box, and tracks your shipment directly to our facility. Use the number on your receipt to track your UPS shipment and know when it will arrive at Heirloom.
Inside Addressing
You may notice your Heirloom box comes complete with an additional address label adhered to the inside? In the unlikely event the outside shipping label should become unreadable, UPS agents will open your box to easily determine where to forward your shipment. This secondary system is what the US intelligence community uses for 100% receipt for the transportation of classified materials!
Secondary Containment
Heirloom boxes come with industrial grade plastic bags & zip ties. Secure all your contents, especially loose photographs prints, in these water-proof bags so they never get separated from your shipment. With secondary containment, your archive-quality items remain intact and secure throughout the entire shipping process.
Packing Peanuts
Contents are safest when they're tightly surrounded by packing materials in their shipping boxes. Each Heirloom box is delivered completely full of packing peanuts, so you can use just what's needed to pack any size order into any size box. You can even feel good about discarding any leftover, biodegradable (corn starch) peanuts from Heirloom!
Security Tape
We prioritize the security of your materials with tamper-evident security tape. Seal each Heirloom box with this special tape to clearly indicate if the package has been compromised during transit. This added level of protection helps to deter unauthorized access and ensures that your contents remain secure from the moment they leave your hands until they reach Heirloom for digitizing.
