Drop Box · Brooklyn

Your film,
your schedule.

Our drop box at the Bushwick lab on Starr Street is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Order online, label your film, and drop it off whenever it works for you. More boxes around New York are on the way.

How It Works

Order, seal, and drop it in.

01

Order online first

Choose your processing and scanning options online. Keep your order number handy so we can match your film to your order.

02

Seal and label

Put your rolls in a sealed bag or envelope and write your order number and contact information clearly on the outside or on a note inside.

03

Drop it in

Any hour, any day. No need to wait for the counter to open.

04

We take it from there

We empty the 24/7 box every day the lab is open (others at least weekly), log your film, and match it to your order. From there you get the same emails as anyone who walked in.

Cost, Timing & Negatives

Quick turnaround

Cost

Free.

Using the box is free. Processing and scanning cost the same as they do at the counter. Try to support our partner locations when you can with a small purchase.

Turnaround

Nothing added.

The box is emptied every day the lab is open. For partner locations, standard turnaround applies from the day we collect your film.

Negatives

They come back to the lab.

Scans arrive by email. Negatives are held at the Bushwick lab for pickup during open hours, or ask us about return by mail when you order.

Host a drop box.

Run a shop, studio, or café in New York where people already stop by? We supply the box, envelopes, and slips, pick up on a regular schedule, and send our customers your way. We’re always looking for additional partners.
