I mean, as smaller objects become more valuable, it becomes harder to find a place safe enough to hold them. And banks don't make money off safe deposit boxes - they're loss leaders to get banking customers.
However, the number of places where you can more securely store small objects with excellent and armed security exploded in recent years. They are currently used to host servers and other internet facing computers. I'm sure they'll store a similar rack-mounted box containing your will if you offer to pay them.
- kylehotchkiss 4y agoAre any of these places available to normal consumers?
- dicknuckle 4y agoOf course they are.
- piperswe 4y agoAlmost all of them are, if you're willing to pay. Expect to pay on the order of $400-$800/month for a bare basic cabinet with minimal power/network in one of these facilities. You can put whatever you want in your cabinet, doesn't have to be computer equipment.
