Why Home Safes Are the Smart Alternative to Bank Safe Deposit Boxes
As more banks across the country begin phasing out safe deposit boxes, many people are left wondering: Where do I securely store my most valuable belongings now?
If you’ve been relying on a bank safe deposit box for your documents, jewelry, or keepsakes, it may be time to consider a home safe. At Mike Ward’s Liberty Safes, we believe that peace of mind shouldn’t come with limitations—and that true security means having access when you need it most.
The Problem: Banks Are Closing Safe Deposit Boxes
It’s a growing trend—major banks are quietly discontinuing safe deposit box services, citing shifting priorities and digital banking models. What does this mean for you?
-
Limited Access – You’re at the mercy of bank hours.
-
Ongoing Fees – You pay every year just to store what you already own.
-
No Insurance Coverage – Contents are not insured by FDIC or the bank.
-
Unexpected Closures – If your branch shuts down or discontinues boxes, you're left scrambling.
