    Privacy

    "The Vault is a VERY private place to rent a private safe deposit box inside a private (bank) vault . . . security surpasses the bank I recently stopped using . . . the owner was a total pro and gave me a private number to reach him on when I need to schedule access. As a woman this made all the difference." -Yelp Review

    Trust

    "Our son died suddenly and we knew we had a family box at The Vault. On contacting the owner, he was generous with his time and gave us full attention ... He arranged for a locksmith and did not charge us due to our grieving a family loss. What more can I say except we highly recommend The Vault." -Yelp Review

    Security

    "I researched private storage from LA to SD and it was ultimately the owners' customer service and the fact that the facility exceeds security requirements necessary for insurance coverage."

    Banks Do Not Insure The Contents of Your Safe Deposit Box!

    Chase

    “The contents of your box are not protected against loss or damage under insurance coverage maintained by the Bank or Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. You may want to secure your own insurance. You understand and agree that safe deposit boxes and vaults are not fireproof, burglarproof or waterproof.”

    “You agree and represent that the aggregate value of the contents of the box will not exceed $25,000 at any time.”

    Wells Fargo

    "A Box does not provide protection against every possibility of physical loss and we do not provide insurance coverage for the contents. Boxes are not designed to withstand fire, explosion, intense heat, smoke, water, building collapse, mold, or similar perils, and you assume the entire loss to the Box contents from such risks.”

    B of A

    “The contents of your safe deposit box are not protected against loss under insurance coverage maintained by the Bank. For your protection, you should secure your own insurance through an insurance company of your choice. You should keep a complete list and description of all property stored in your safe deposit box, as well as the appraised value and proof of ownership."

    U.S. Bank

    “Safe deposit boxes and their contents are not covered by FDIC-Insurance or U.S. Bank’s insurance policy. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insures deposits in deposit accounts. Safe deposit boxes are considered storage space provided by the bank and do not fall under these insurance laws. Therefore, when considering whether to rent a safe deposit box, please check with your personal insurance carrier to determine whether safe deposit box contents are covered under your existing policy or if you will require additional insurance.”
