Postal coverage · Storrington, RH20
Data recovery, Storrington. Half a parish inside a national park, and no station.
Storrington is a village in the Horsham district, and its own council is Storrington and Sullington Parish Council. The parish recorded 7,245 residents on census day, 21 March 2021. There is no single large employer here: the working economy is shops, a surgery, restaurants and pubs, visitor accommodation, and the farms on the downland behind. A Storrington parcel is diagnosed free on arrival and quoted in writing, just as a Brighton one is.

What comes off Storrington's desks.
Something else? Run the triage →| The problem as described | Why it's a local regular | First thing we do |
|---|---|---|
| A farm office machine after the power failed | Accounts, subsidy paperwork and traceability records for a downland holding | Send the disk, not the tower |
| A village shop's till and accounts machine | Independent retail running without an IT department, and without a second copy | Stop using it, then post it |
| A home-office NAS that will not mount | Two disks in a cupboard doing the work of a server | Image now, while it reads |
| Survey and drone cards from a field day | Downland holdings survey their own ground now, and the card comes home as the only copy | Card out before anything else |
| A consultant's laptop that stopped on a Friday | Home-based professional work, one machine and one copy of it | Give us the deadline early |
How a Storrington case is handled.
What Storrington wants to know.
Do you handle confidential client files from Storrington practices?
Routinely. Work sits on the bench under a case reference and never a client name, is read only as far as getting it back requires, and comes home with a listing you check before payment. Our privacy policy is written in English rather than legalese, should your compliance folder want it.
How long does a Storrington case usually take?
Post it today and it is diagnosed the next working day, with the written figure following shortly after. Logical faults often finish within a couple of working days of approval. Mechanical and multi-drive work takes longer, and we say that at the outset rather than later.
The village has no station. Does that make posting awkward?
Not really. The A283 runs through the village and the nearest stations are Pulborough and Amberley, but your drive needs neither of them. It goes as one tracked, insured parcel from any counter, and the postage home afterwards is ours.
Our NAS has two disks in it. Do we send the whole box?
Yes — the whole NAS can travel as it stands, enclosure included. Servers and RAID sets are different: the disks travel bare, each carrying the bay number it sat in. If you are not sure which yours is, ring and describe it.
