    3. Mail-in services

    Legacybox, ScanCafe, EverPresent. Pack photos in a box, get scanned files back.

    4. Local Costco

    Photo center scans hundreds at low cost. Great for slides and negatives too.

    5. Save 2 places

    Save scans to iCloud or Google Photos AND a USB drive. Two backups always.

    6. Add captions

    Type names and dates while you remember them. Future generations will thank you.
