Safe Deposit Boxes

Your valuables kept safe and sound

As more emphasis is placed on protecting our digital records and online identities, a need still remains to secure our physical belongings.

As the name suggests, the biggest advantage of a safe deposit box is safety and security. A safe deposit box is stored inside a vault, and includes the protection of the bank’s security system, which is monitored around the clock.

Safe deposit boxes can provide added protection beyond what you may have available at home. Keeping things at home may seem convenient, but safe deposit boxes are fire resistant and protected against floods and natural disasters. A locked vault at the bank can offer more security than a file cabinet or dresser drawer at home.

Items commonly stored in safe deposit boxes include birth, death and marriage certificates, real estate deeds, car titles, paper stocks or savings bonds, family heirlooms and photos, or important legal documents. You cannot store drugs, firearms, weapons, ammunition, hazardous or explosive items, or other potentially dangerous or illegal items in a safe deposit box. Whatever you choose to store in the box is not insured by Norry Bank or the FDIC.

Here are some tips on how to select and set up a safe deposit box: 

  • Decide what you want to store. This will help you select what size box you’ll need.
  • Make an appointment to open a box. Be sure to bring along photo identification. Norry Bank has five branches that offer safe deposit boxes in a variety of sizes.
  • Open the box and sign an agreement. Norry Bank’s safe deposit box rentals are valid for one year, and renew annually. For your convenience, we can automatically withdraw the rental fee from your account. 
  • Get your key and place your items in the box. Make a list and photograph everything in the box. Keep the key, list and photographs in your possession. 

For just one low annual rental fee, you’ll have peace of mind knowing exactly where your valuables are at all times, and that they’re safe.
