Hi @dcollinsClam,

If you have SSH access to your new hosting you can either use the scp or the rsync command.

Imagine you want to use scp, you’ll need to SSH to your droplet with DigitalOcean.

ssh root@YourDropletIp

Go to the directory you wish to migrate and type in the following command 

scp -R DirectoryOfYourWebsite UserOfNewHosting@NewHostingIP:/path/to/where/your/files/will/be/stored

This will ask for the user password of your new hosting.

Regards,
KDSys
