Florida Alternative to Legacybox & iMemories | Boca Raton Studio
By Zachary G.
VHS Tapes · Film Reels · Photos · Audio · Digitized in Boca Raton, Florida
Safeguarding your memories is worth the drive.
Families come to our Boca Raton studio from Orlando, Tampa, Naples and Jacksonville — sit down at the table, go through what they have with somebody who does this for a living, and drive home having handed it to a person rather than a courier.
The tape engineering team, 1000 Clint Moore Road, Boca Raton — film, photo and audio each have their own. This is who your box is driving to.

Approximate driving times to 1000 Clint Moore Road, Boca Raton. Worth putting next to the alternative: Legacybox, Southtree and Kodak Digitizing all ship to the same Chattanooga facility, iMemories to Scottsdale, Capture to Norcross.
Or skip the drive. We send a prepaid ship kit and cover the shipping both ways. Your originals still never leave Florida.
What actually happens
Twenty minutes at the table.
This is the part a shipping label cannot do, and it is the reason people make the drive.
Step 1
You spread it out
Boxes, albums, loose tapes, the shoebox nobody has opened since the move. We go through it with you and tell you what is worth doing and what is not.
Step 2
You get a real number
Counted in front of you, priced per item — tapes from $12, photos from 50¢. No bundle to fill, no order fee, no invoice arriving after the fact.
Step 3
You decide what stays
Some of it you will want done now, some later, some not at all. You leave with a plan rather than a receipt.
Step 4
It never leaves the building
Logged by name, worked on by a technician who signs off on it, checked three times by hand. Then you either pick it up or we ship it back insured.
Either way works
Drive down, or let us send the box.
Drive down. Walk-ins welcome, no appointment needed. Mon–Fri 9–6, Sat 10–5. Bring everything; we will tell you what is worth doing.
Ship it in. We send a prepaid kit and cover the shipping both ways. Your originals are logged on arrival, stay in the one building the whole time, and come back to you insured at declared value.
If you are still comparing
The national big box digitizing companies put this in their terms, not their ads.
We are not going to characterise them. These are their own published words, and every one links to the source.
“YOU RECOGNIZE THAT YOU MAY NOT RECEIVE YOUR MATERIALS BACK … BY PLACING AN ORDER, YOU ACCEPT THIS RISK.”
Legacybox Services Terms & Conditions. Capitalisation theirs. The identical clause appears in Southtree’s and Kodak Digitizing’s terms — all three are the same company, AMB Media LLC, in the same Chattanooga building.
“…we may choose to compensate you for loss or damage; or we may decline, entirely, to issue a refund or provide any compensatory monies.”
Maximum liability: the fees you paid, “or $100, whichever is less.”
iMemories Terms & Conditions. Capture’s terms cap at $100 too, “in aggregate for all violations.”
For what it is worth, our own return shipment is insured at declared value, and you are welcome to come and collect it in person instead.
One building
Once it reaches us it stays here.
Never sub-contracted, never sent on. The rack wall behind them is where it gets done, and the counter out front is where you get it back.
Preserving your most important memories since 2007
In Florida
Once it reaches us it stays in one Boca Raton building — never sub-contracted, never sent on.
Insured
Shipped back insured at declared value — or collect it from the counter yourself.
