_If_ you can get a safe deposit box in your bank, that is. My local bank (Chase) is always sold out of boxes. Sure, you'll next say: change your bank. But the other one (BoA) is also out.
My point is, it's not such an easy option as you're making it out to be.
- neilv 5y agoWhen I shopped for a local bank branch that had safe deposit boxes (maybe decade ago), one of the bankers told me a lot of banks and branches were trying to get rid of their boxes, and not wanting to include boxes in new branches. I managed to get a box in the basement of the BofA in Harvard Square back then, and kinda wish I'd kept it, since I doubt I could get one today.

- sombremesa 5y agoFunnily enough my bank very recently made me sign an agreement which precluded me from subleasing my safe deposit box. Maybe this is the next arbitrage opportunity.
- diveanon 5y agoMaybe stop going to big corporate banks? I got one last week without any issue.
- UncleMeat 5y agoYeah I remember trying to open one in the bay area a while back. My local bank had a wait time of more than three years for a box.
