Of course, if you get a much bigger safe deposit box, it can be more expensive, and you should also make sure to have a “floater” policy or some other form of insurance that covers your items. Some things are covered at one rate while in the safe deposit box and require notice when they are taken out, and will be covered at a different rate while in your possession i.e. those jewels you wear to the Oscars.
