It dawned on me that i really have no idea how much safe deposits cost in various regions of the country.
In my area alone which is in the Hudson Valley region of New York (between New York City and Albany, NY) the following price ranges were found for the larger sized boxes:
10" (high) x10" (wide) box = ranges from $95 to $225 plus sales tax
5 x 10 box = ranges from $65 to $200 plus sales tax
5 x 5 box = ranges from $40 to $95 plus sales tax (note that NYState imposes SALES tax on safe deposit boxes!!!)
All of them are pretty much the same in length.
I could not believe how much prices varied in my area alone!!!!
Generally mutual savings bank (which are rapidly vanishing) are on the low end and commercial banks are on the high end.
Credit Unions never seem to have safe deposit boxes!!
Your findings and comments are appreciated!!!

I get charged a rental fee, no tax. $45.00 for the year. Sovereign bank.
oh, and mines a 5 X 10
I've had my safe deposit boxes for 41 years now. Man I could have bought a nice big safe for that much money.

thats quite a large jump in price. are they adding a security guard and a missle shield to the bank's security ensemble
Prior to sovereign taking over 4 years ago, it was $35.00 a year
Medium: $100
Large: $200
That's one bank. They're probably comparable.

joined them! Oh, and they humidify their vault to keep documents from crumbling (I live
in Vegas and boy it's dry here).
Free is good but I don't want one anyway!

So, the next year is free, baby.
10 x 10 costs $130 per year in Naples, Florida at Bank of America.
I use to have six boxes until I consolidated a few things... now,
I'm down to three.
My end goal is to have one smaller box housing a more
concise collection..." a la 'Box of Twenty'..."

I have all I can manage sliding a 10 x 10 out and onto the table. It holds 16 silver NGC boxes flat, or about18 PCGS boxes on end. Cost is $125 each per year.

Exactly the same in the Chicago area. Massive price differences. Also, massive availability and access differences.
But availability is very tight. I have been on a waiting list for a 10x10 for over 5 years.

None of you are obviously from the Chicago area. I'm well past that age, have a substantial account in several banks and I can't even get a free pen from them. Have 5 safe deposit boxes in 5 different places and if I wanted to write something down and asked for a piece of paper, they look at me as if they wanted me to pay for that too. Actually at all of them there is a waiting list for boxes. I'm only suprized they don't charge to park in thier lots. Being a frequent visitor to hospitals I've noticed that the majority charge to park in thier lots so why not banks next. Just in case your curious, Weiss Hospital charges the most at $6 to park. University of Chicago Hospitals charges by the hour.
<< <i>Mine's free with a "qualifying" balance. >>
So is mine, but the box isn't big enough. ( remember all them beanie babies I voted to abort ? ) LOL
