Aurora is the second-largest city in Illinois, a Fox River city spread across Kane, DuPage, Kendall, and Will counties at the western end of the Chicago suburbs. Data here gets lost in flooded basements, summer storm outages, and the daily Metra commute into Chicago, where laptops get dropped and bags get left behind. We handle every Aurora recovery by mail with a free prepaid shipping label.

Common causes of data loss around Aurora

The Fox River runs straight through Aurora, and heavy spring rain or fast snowmelt can push it and its creeks out of their banks. Many Aurora homes have basements, and that is where home offices, family desktops, and boxes of old drives often end up. Keep computers and storage off basement floors, put a battery backup on any sump pump, and never power on a drive that has been sitting in water. Bag it while it is still damp and get it evaluated quickly.

Northern Illinois summers bring fast-moving thunderstorms with lightning, damaging straight-line winds, and occasional tornado warnings, and winters bring ice and bitter cold that can down lines and cause outages. Power that cuts out and returns repeatedly is hard on drives that are mid-write. Use a UPS on desktops and NAS units, unplug sensitive equipment when a severe line of storms is approaching, and let a laptop or drive that came in from a freezing car warm to room temperature before you turn it on.

Data recovery in Aurora — common questions

Can I drop off my drive somewhere in Aurora?+

My basement flooded and my computer was on the floor. What should I do?+

Do not plug it in or try to dry it with a hair dryer or heater. Unplug it, remove the drive if you can do so easily, place the drive in a sealed plastic bag while it is still damp, and confirm your case online. Floodwater carries minerals and silt, so getting it to a cleanroom sooner gives the best odds.

No. ClearQuote is a mail-in service — there's no drop-off required. We email you a free prepaid shipping label, you send the device from anywhere in Aurora, and we handle the recovery in our ISO-certified cleanroom.
