Renting a Safe Deposit Box · 租用保险箱

basic
You

I'd like to rent a safe deposit box. Do you have any available?

我想租一个保险箱。还有空的吗?

Yes, we have several sizes available. Our small boxes are five by five inches, medium ones are five by ten, and large ones are ten by ten. What do you need to store?

有的,我们有几种尺寸。小号的5x5英寸,中号的5x10英寸,大号的10x10英寸。您需要存放什么?

You

Just some important documents — my passport, birth certificate, and some jewelry. A medium box should work.

就一些重要文件——护照、出生证明和一些首饰。中号应该够了。

A medium box is seventy-five dollars per year. You'll receive two keys — please keep them safe, as replacement keys cost twenty-five dollars each. You can access the box during banking hours.

中号保险箱每年75美元。您会收到两把钥匙——请保管好,补配钥匙每把25美元。您可以在银行营业时间内使用保险箱。

You

Is the contents of the box insured by the bank?

保险箱里的东西银行给保险吗?

💡 银行保险箱里的物品通常不在FDIC保险范围内,也不在银行保险范围内。建议购买单独的保险。

Actually, the contents are not insured by the bank or FDIC. We recommend that you add the items to your homeowner's or renter's insurance policy for coverage. Would you like to go ahead and rent the box?

实际上,保险箱里的物品不在银行或FDIC保险范围内。我们建议您把这些物品加到您的房屋或租客保险中。您要租这个保险箱吗?

You

Yes, let's do it. Can someone else access the box if I give them my key?

好,就租吧。如果我把钥匙给别人,别人能打开保险箱吗?

Only authorized signers can access the box. You can add a co-renter to the agreement — they'll need to come in with their ID to be added. Both the key and proper identification are required for access.

只有授权签名人才能使用保险箱。您可以在协议中添加共同租用人——他们需要带身份证件来办理。使用保险箱需要同时出示钥匙和有效身份证件。
