Shipping your media for data recovery

Shipping your media for data recovery or digital forensic services

Shipping your media correctly is a critical part of ensuring that your data remains recoverable.

Below are a number of important tips you should follow when packaging your media for shipment:

1. SUBMIT YOUR PROJECT

Shipping your media

Fill out the online data recovery form, sign it, and include it along with your package when shipping your media to Capital Data Recovery Inc.

Please, sign it, and include the form with your package when shipping your media to us.

2. PREPARE THE MEDIA FOR SHIPPING
Package your media in ESD, anti-static bags, or a zip-lock bag. Avoid touching the circuit board or electrical connectors when handling the hard drive.

Use a foam or a double layer of bubble wrap around the hard drive or a solid drive. Pack hard drive in a suitable shipping carton with a minimum of 2 inches packing material between the drive and carton.

We don’t suggest using the shipping “peanuts” as the drive might become loose while transportation and get damaged.

3. SHIP YOUR MEDIA TO OUR DATA RECOVERY LAB

Capital Data Recovery Inc.
1827 Woodward Drive, Unit 306
Ottawa ON K2C 0P9
Canada

If possible, use a shipping service with tracking capabilities. For faster service, use overnight or 2nd-day service.

4. CONTACT US
Contact us once the drive is shipped and let us know the tracking number (if applicable).

Once your media is received and evaluated, you will be contacted by phone or email.

    Capital Data Recovery stands out for their professionalism, expertise, and dedication. We reached out to them for help with a data recovery attempt on our home security system, and from the start, it was … More clear we were dealing with specialists. After calling several data recovery services across Ottawa, it quickly became apparent that Capital Data Recovery was the best choice. Their knowledge, transparency, and communication set them apart. They were diligent, personable, and clearly passionate about their work, taking time to explain what was possible with care and integrity. Even their competition recommended them — a true testament to their reputation and capability. Highly recommended for any and all data recovery needs!

    Our old computer’s hard drive crashed, and it held all our family photos and videos dating back to 2011 — including our daughter’s birth and her first six years with us. We tried everything ourselves, … More and even a local computer store couldn’t recover the data. We were heartbroken.
    Then we contacted Capital Data Recovery. Within days, they let us know everything was fully recoverable. They transferred all our precious memories onto an external drive and saved 15 years of irreplaceable moments. We’re beyond grateful we found them.
