Hard Drive Recovery?

I heard once on the news that there is a place here in Idaho that will allow me to send an HDD to them for data recovery. Basically they use the same equipment that the FBI uses to recover data. Mind you, this was on the news. Just wondering, if anyone might know of a place that does this?
I ran onto this website, but I don't know how helpful it is:

Have youtried recovering the data yourself using Getdataback software?
I've used a place in town and the average price is $1000 a drive. This was a laptop drive that was not recognized in BIOS or Windows.

Yep, I tried that software. Even if we have to mail it somewhere, it will work.
The problem... is that this is a business I'm dealing with, so if they don't pay the money, their business is probably toast.

Look in your phone book for \"data recovery\".

Won't work. I tried. I live, in a tiny farming community. I'm near a couple of cities but to you guys, they would be considered more like a town, considering they are pretty small too. Something like that won't normally be found in the phone book. My company is usually the main business that works with data around here. But I suspect there might be another place in one of the other towns somewhere but I have no idea who does it and there isn't anything in any of the phone books for it. :\\

Overnight it to a place in Seattle & vicinity. There's probably a place there. Get on YellowBook.com and do a search there.

ADR Data Recovery has an outlet in Boise, ID.
If you're closer to Utah...
ADR Data Recovery (Salt lake City)
Yeah, probably not cheap, and unless I'm mistaken... fee gets paid even if no data is recovered.
So... which little town in Idaho? (I'm also in Idaho)
