 ### Syncing Environments

While your containers are running, you can run any of these commands to import, export, or backup a database. Here are the quick commands, with more instructions below.

 #### Importing Databases
 
-You can import databases from production, a saved backup, or another developer's DB export with the `import:db` script. To use it, put a `*.sql.gz` file in a top-level `sync/sql` folder in the repo and run `npm run import:db`. This will first back up your existing database in case you need to revert back to it, and then it will import the database from the given file, effectively replacing your database with a new one.
+You can import databases from production, a saved backup, or another developer's DB export with the `import:db` script. To use it, put a `*.sql.gz` file directly inside of a `sync/sql` folder in the repo and run `npm run import:db`. This will first back up your existing database to `sync/sql/backups` in case you need to revert back to it, and then it will import the database from the given file, effectively replacing your database with a new one. The imported SQL script will then be moved to `sync/sql/previous-imports`.

 This will happen automatically when you import a database, but if you want to manually backup your database, you can run `npm run backup:db`. This functions nearly identically to the `export:db` script, except for using a different prefix and putting the file in `sync/sql/backups`. As with `export:db`, you can specify a name for your DB backup if you want.
 
+#### Importing Uploads
+
+You can import a zipped copy of the `uploads` folder from another environment, saved backup, or another developer's export with the `import:uploads` script. To use it, put a `*.tar.gz` file directly inside of a `sync/uploads` folder in the repo and run `npm run import:uploads`. This will first back up your current `uploads` folder to `sync/uploads/backups`, and then it will replace your `uploads` folder with the contents of the zip file. The imported `.tar.gz` file will then be moved to `sync/uploads/previous-imports`.
+
+#### Exporting Uploads
+
+You can export your `uploads` folder for another developer to import or to import to another environment by running `npm run export:uploads`. By default, this will create a timestamped zip file in `sync/uploads/exports`, but you can specify a name by running `npm run export:uploads <your-descriptive-name-here>`. The exported file will still be timestamped, but it will use the name you give it instead of the default prefix.
+
+#### Backing Up Uploads
+
+This will happen automatically on import, but if you want to manually backup your `uploads` folder, you can run `npm run backup:uploads`. This functions nearly identically to the `export:uploads` script, except for using a different prefix and putting the zip file in `sync/uploads/backups`. As with `export:uploads`, you can specify a name for your backup if you want.
