Hands down the best business I've ever worked with! I needed help with converting an incredibly large project onto over 100 DVD's and the crew at Put It On Video made it seem like the simplest thing ever. From the genuine courtesy over the phone answering all my questions to in-store drop-off and pick-up.everything was a breeze and the quality of the DVD's exceeded my expectations. Also, they answered all my questions about a personal project that I had in mind.
My father absolutely loved his DVD copies of his old 8mm film reel from when he was a young child. Moments in time he hadn't been able to see or reminisce on since he was a boy growing up with his dad and grandpa who have both passed away. "The best birthday gift ever!" Will absolutely use Put It On Video again and again in the future!

I was just about to send my VHS tape of my wedding out in the mail. I just happened to look up one last time for a place local and I dropped it off in the afternoon and it was ready the next morning. Best part was because they do their work in house my tape was not going to get lost in the mail or whatever else. I will absolutely use Put It On Video for all future video needs.

I am tickled to death at the DVD's that we had them make! We had YEARS of movie film from both sides of the family that we now have. We had them do them all! We have NEVER seen these videos, some as far back as 1947 before we were born! Most came out beautifully with a little deterioration from age or handling. And one DVD, in particular, has my dad (passed in 2013)back in 2007 on a family vacation that absolutely made my day! Thank you!

Excellent service! I found my VHS wedding tape in the safe one day. Then I had to find a VCR, to try it out, of course to see if it would work? I tried it and all I got was snow. I carried my VHS tape in my car debating should I throw it in the garbage? What should I do with it? One day I came by Put it on Video. I thought hey I will check them out. I walked in and what a nice store! I talked with Bill the owner.
He was very sweet and said lets take a look and see what we got. Well we had a miracle. 29 year old VHS video worked on his high quality VCR. Needless to say I purchased two DVD's of this amazing transfer. Now my husband and I have a DVD of our wedding. We now have videos of both of our Mom's who are now passed and are angels in heaven. Just like the one on earth, thanks Bill and staff for the recovery of memories!

We had a great experience with "Put It On Video!" My Mother-In-Law recorded some songs at the KRNT studio in Des Moines approximately 75 years ago. We tried to play the record, but had no success. We decided to see if "Put It On Video" could get it to work. Bill not only succeeded in transferring this onto a CD, but got this into my hands the next day. How wonderful it was to hear this for the first time, especially since she passed away on Christmas morning. What a great gift to pass along to all our family members. Thanks, Bill, for doing an amazing job. We appreciate it immensely!
