We move your files, photos, and settings from your old computer to your new one at our Blue Springs location, 15 minutes from Lee’s Summit, Independence, and Grain Valley. Flat rate $150, nothing left behind.
Windows to Windows, Mac to Mac, or across the two. You sit down at the new machine and everything is where you expect it.
Book a drop-off and bring the old computer and the new one. If the old machine won’t turn on, bring it anyway — a dead computer and a dead drive are different problems, and the drive is usually fine.
We go through what’s on the old machine — files, photos, email, bookmarks — so nothing you care about gets missed. Flat $150, no surprises.
Everything moves to the new machine, organized the way you had it. Programs are reinstalled fresh — bringing old installations forward drags old problems with them, so we do it right instead.
You get both machines back with the new one ready to use. Most transfers are done within one to two business days.
Diagnostics are $60 and include a written quote. Most repairs fall inside the ranges below. Nothing starts until you approve the number.

EXCELLENT Based on 57 reviews Posted on Google Kent LichtyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was my first experience with KC Computer Staff, and I was very favorably impressed with their excellent work! Phoenix quickly analyzed the problem with my PC, and got it fixed and back to me the very next day. He was exceedingly polite and professional in every way. I highly recommend them.Posted on Google jjgeist2004Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. KC computer staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I scheduled them for an at home visit. They actually were able to come to location within a couple of hours. It was decided that the issue couldn't be fixed at the house and needed to go to the shop for more diagnostic. I put a rush on the fix for a fee and they had it fixed the next day. They were able to diagnose the issue same day and called to confirm how to proceed. We found replacing parts online but going above and beyond their employee took it upon themselves to make the 45 minute drive to MicroCenter to get the parts quicker. Hopefully I don't have any more issues, but if I do I'll be taking it back to KC Computer Staff.Posted on Google Celeste DunlapTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. KC Computer Staff was very helpful in repairing my bosses computer and went the extra mile in securing a battery asap! Would definitely recommend them as a repair shop to someone who needs one!Posted on Google Glen NashTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My (our) second experience with KC Computer Staff. It was easy and pleasant…less than 24 hour turnaround!Posted on Google Abigail Simons (Milly)Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely delighted with the service from the staff in helping with my gaming laptop! Before I took it in to them I was nervous that I would need a whole new laptop, and I am so so glad I took the chance to trust them with my metal baby! Connor was very good at explaining what could be the cause of my issues and I felt confident in their recommendations for fixes. When I was still having issues after the initial fixing, Connor showed me excellent customer service and asked me if I could bring it in for another go, with discounted rates for the inconvenience. I am very glad I did as my laptop is completely fixed, and I am very very grateful to Phoenix (I think, I'm so sorry if I am not remembering correctly!) for letting me pick up my laptop 10 minutes past closing so I could have it back Friday evening and not wait til Monday. My 5 yr old laptop runs like new again thanks to their expertise and I cannot recommend them more! 🤩🙌Posted on Google B LawhonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have used KC Computer Staff for many years and with each setting I have been satisfied. He is kind, efficient, and professional. I recommend KC Computer Staff for all your computer needs.Posted on Google Kimberly FarnsworthTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great service as usual! Would recommend to everyone!Posted on Google JJ JudgeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Moved to the DC Area, but still wanted Connor to be the one to work on my Mac. I mailed it to him, he mailed it back, and now everything that wasn't working is working now.

Come on in. We’re expecting you.
Usually, yes. A dead computer and a dead drive are different failures — in most cases the drive is readable even when the machine isn't, and the flat $150 applies. If the drive itself has failed, that becomes a data recovery evaluation, and we quote it in writing before touching anything.
Files and settings transfer directly. Programs are reinstalled fresh on the new machine — bringing old installations forward drags years of problems onto a brand-new computer, so we do it the right way instead. If a program needs a license key, we help you track it down.
Yes, both directions. Files, photos, email, and bookmarks all move across. We'll also point out anything that works differently on the new side, so nothing surprises you at home.
Most transfers are done within one to two business days of drop-off. Large photo and video libraries can add time — we tell you upfront if yours will.
You take it home, and your data stays on it untouched — nothing is wiped without your written approval. If you'd rather retire it, ask about a secure wipe so your files can't be recovered by whoever handles it next.
Written quote within 24 hours or the diagnostic is free. No work begins without your approval. Six-month guarantee on every repair.
