<p>[QUOTE=&quot;doug444, post: 1872216, member: 38849&quot;]Safety-deposit boxes are so cheap, especially at credit unions, that you might as well get one now and put everything inside that you don&#039;t want to look at every day.&nbsp; For instance, down the line, a 5 x 10 box (way bigger than you&#039;ll need) is $42 per year at my credit union, and that size will just hold $1000 face in junk silver.&nbsp; When filled, it will weigh roughly 68 pounds, so choose one about 18 to 24 inches off the floor, not one where you have to reach over your head.&nbsp; In case the vault room floods (an actual flood or defective sprinkler, etc.), don&#039;t get a box in the very bottom row.</p><p><br /></p><p>The smallest size shouldn&#039;t run more than $22 or so; a bank will charge double that amount.&nbsp; Folks can save a LOT of money by &quot;banking&quot; at a credit union.&nbsp; Don&#039;t select a state-chartered credit union - their deposit insurance is shaky, IMO.&nbsp; Your homeowner&#039;s or tenant insurance does NOT cover the contents.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
