Where we are and who we serve

An independent lab in Orange, California

We are one building in Orange County. Everything is scanned here, by the people who work here. That is the whole proposition, and it is the reason people who could mail their film somewhere cheaper choose to drive instead.

Dropping off in person

Walking in involves the fewest handoffs of any delivery method. Your reels go from your hands to ours with nothing in between: no courier, no sorting facility, no warehouse. For irreplaceable originals that is the lowest-risk route that exists.

Contact us before you come so we can confirm current hours and have someone available to log your items in properly rather than in a hurry.

If driving is not practical

Shipping within Southern California is short, which matters: fewer miles and fewer transfers mean fewer opportunities for a box to go astray. Pack originals so they cannot shift, and tell us what is coming.

Who we work with

Households across Los Angeles, Orange County, San Diego, Riverside and San Bernardino, alongside schools, churches, historical societies and production companies. The same equipment and the same hands do both.

Rather hand it over in person?

Bring your reels to the lab and talk to the person who will actually scan them. Send a photo first and we will tell you what you are holding.
