Bulk Scanning

What bulk scanning services do you offer?
We offer a Shoebox Scan for bulk photographs (price-breaks available up to 501+ prints) and Slide Scanning services for bulk slides (price-breaks available up to 1000 slides).
How can I save money with your bulk scanning services?
If you have 7 or more photographs, you'll save money using our Shoebox Scanning service!

For our Shoebox Scanning Service, scanning up to 50 photographs costs $40.25 (taxes included). If you have up to 6 photographs you want scanned, you're better off submitting these for our regular Copy & Scanning service (these scanned files are much larger - however, they cost $5.50 each. 6 photos scanned this way will cost $37.95, taxes included).

If you have 12 or more slides, you'll save money using our bulk Slide Scanning service!

For our Slide Scanning Service, scanning up to 50 slides costs $74.75 (taxes included). If you have up to 11 slides to scan, you're better off submitting these for our regular Copy & Scanning service (these scanned files are larger - however, they cost $5.50 each. 11 photos scanned this way will cost $69.58, taxes included).

What is the turnaround time for your bulk services?
Typical turnaround time is 2-3 weeks. This can increase or decrease, depending on the time of year and/or the amount of slides/prints in your order! If you need a more exact timeframe or are in a rush, just give us a call.
What print sizes are accepted?
Our Shoebox Scanning service can handle print sizes ranging from 2.5x3.5" (wallet size) to 8x12", and can be in either colour or black and white. Anything larger than 8x12 needs to be scanned on our larger scanners and is subject to those prices.
What slides are accepted?
Our Slide Scanning service is appropriate for 135mm and 126mm mounted slides only.
135mm slides might have a slight black edge showing, but typically the entire image fits edge-to-edge with little to no border. The 126mm slides are a bit different; because they're square, these scans are returned with a black edge on the left and right sides. This cannot be avoided as the camera we use to capture these scans has a 3:2 aspect ratio, and the 126mm slides have a 1:1 (square) aspect ratio.
