Pricing Information

  • Fixed cost per tape: each tape is priced at a set rate, and the bulk discount applies automatically as the order grows.
  • What the per-tape price covers: VHS, VHS-C, MiniDV, Video 8, Hi8, Digital 8, Betamax, DVD-to-digital and audio cassettes. Mix these formats in a single order and they all count together towards your bulk discount.
  • Tape lengths: every tape includes up to 3 hours of content. Anything longer is charged at £6 per extra hour.
  • DVD copies: £6 per disc. A disc holds up to 2 hours, so a long recording is split across more than one disc rather than squeezed down to fit.
  • NTSC and French tapes: a £7 fee applies for NTSC (American/Japanese) and French tapes.
  • Mould, debris or damage: cleaning and repair start at £13 per tape.
  • Every conversion includes an MP4 and an archival master file at the same price — no custom quote, no extra charge.
  • Tapes To Digital doesn't charge for blank tapes or for anything that can't be recovered, and your original tapes always come back.

How you get your files

Choose a USB we supply, a download, a USB you bring us, or an external hard drive — the hard drive is available on any order, not just large ones.

How long it takes

Most orders are ready in 7–10 working days from the day Tapes To Digital receives your tapes, and often sooner. Tell us when you book if you need them by a particular date and we'll say straight away whether we can meet it.

Dropping tapes at one of Tapes To Digital's four UK drop-offs — Brixton, Watford, Southall and Farnborough — costs exactly the same as posting them in from anywhere in the UK. See all drop-off locations or read more about converting VHS to digital.

Accepted Formats:

VHS, VHS-C, Video 8, Hi8, Digital 8, MiniDV, Betamax, Mini 8cm DVDs, full-size DVDs and audio cassettes.

Every conversion from Tapes To Digital includes an MP4 and an archival master file at the same price, and we never charge for a blank tape or a transfer we can't complete.

Why choose Tapes To Digital for VHS to DVD?

DVD copies are £6 per disc on top of the per-tape price. Plenty of customers still want a disc they can put straight into a player, and Tapes To Digital burns them properly rather than as an afterthought.

Our commitment to quality

  • A disc holds up to 2 hours. If your recording runs longer, Tapes To Digital splits it across more than one disc rather than squeezing it down to fit — you keep the quality instead of losing it to compression.
  • No cheap shortcuts: we don't use low-quality recorders. We burn from a high-quality digital file made on professional converters.
  • Full flexibility: our DVDs are not locked or copy-protected, so you're free to copy or use them as you wish.
  • Bulk discounts: the more tapes in your order, the lower the per-tape price — from £15 down to £13.
  • Your MP4 and archival master file are included at the same price whether or not you order a DVD.

Prefer a USB, a download or an external hard drive instead? All four options cost the same and are explained in the section above.

Accepted Formats:

VHS, VHS-C, Video 8, Hi8, Digital 8, MiniDV, Betamax, Mini 8cm DVDs, full-size DVDs and audio cassettes.

Cleaning VHS and VHS-C tapes

Has it been years since you last looked at your old VHS or VHS-C tapes? Mould and debris build up over time, showing as white patches that wreck playback.

Tapes To Digital cleans the mould and debris off your tapes before converting them, from £13 per tape, on top of the per-tape conversion price. If a tape turns out to be beyond saving there's no charge for it — you only pay for footage we actually recover.

Not sure how bad a tape is? Send Tapes To Digital a photo on WhatsApp before you book and we'll tell you what we think.

VHS & VHS-C tape repair

Snapped tape, cracked shell, a cassette that jams? Tapes To Digital's repair service starts at £13 per tape. That price is for the repair itself and sits on top of the per-tape conversion price.

If a tape can't be repaired, or there's nothing recoverable on it, Tapes To Digital doesn't charge you for it — and either way the original comes back to you.

Send us a photo of the damage on WhatsApp before you book and we'll tell you honestly whether it's worth attempting.

Tape to digital pricing — your questions answered

How much does it cost to convert a tape to digital in the UK?

Tapes To Digital charges £15 per tape for 1–4 tapes, £14.50 for 5–10 tapes, £14 for 11–20 tapes, £13.50 for 21–30 tapes and £13 per tape for 30 or more. VHS, VHS-C, MiniDV, Video 8, Hi8, Digital 8, Betamax, DVD-to-digital and audio cassettes all sit in the same tiers, and a mixed order counts together towards the discount.

What is included in the per-tape price?

Every Tapes To Digital conversion includes an MP4 that plays on modern devices and an archival master file, both at the same price with no custom quote. You choose how you get them: a USB we supply, a download, a USB you bring us, or an external hard drive, which is available on any order.

Do you charge for blank tapes?

No. Tapes To Digital doesn't charge for blank tapes or for anything that can't be recovered, so you only pay for footage we actually recover. We can't tell how long a tape runs until we transfer it, so we never quote a length in advance. Your original tapes always come back to you.

What happens if my tape is longer than three hours?

The Tapes To Digital per-tape price covers up to 3 hours of recording. Anything beyond that is charged at £6 per extra hour.

How much does a DVD copy cost?

A DVD copy is £6 per disc on top of the per-tape price. A disc holds up to 2 hours, so Tapes To Digital splits a longer recording across more than one disc rather than compressing it to fit.

Do NTSC or French tapes cost more?

Yes. Tapes To Digital charges £7 per tape on top of the per-tape price for NTSC (American or Japanese) and French tapes, because they need different equipment to play back correctly.

Can you convert mouldy or damaged tapes?

Usually, yes. Tapes To Digital cleans mould and debris from £13 per tape, and repairs damaged VHS and VHS-C tapes from £13 per tape, both on top of the conversion price. If a tape turns out to be beyond saving there's no charge for it.

Does posting my tapes in cost more than dropping them off?

No. Tapes To Digital charges the same per-tape price whether you post your tapes in from anywhere in the UK or drop them at one of our four drop-offs — Brixton in south London, Watford in Hertfordshire, Southall in Ealing, or Farnborough in Hampshire. Drop-offs are by appointment, and the exact address arrives in your booking confirmation.

How long does it take?

Most Tapes To Digital orders are ready in 7–10 working days from the day we receive your tapes, and often sooner. Tell us when you book if you need them by a particular date and we'll say straight away whether we can meet it.

Still not sure what your order would cost?

Message Tapes To Digital on WhatsApp with a photo of your tapes and we'll give you a straight answer before you book.
