Items to Store in a Private Vault
You can store many items in a private safe deposit box. Aside from the traditional items like vehicle titles and birth certificates, anything you can't afford to lose is fair game. Bank safe deposit boxes generally only come in a few sizes limiting what you can store. Private safe deposit boxes at Inwood Security Vaults range in size from 3 in x 5 in x 24 in to 4 ft x 4 ft x 10 ft allowing storage of much larger items.
