Khun Bob Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 Hi All I hope to be spending some time in Thailand next year and wondered if anyone knows about self storage and safety deposit boxes (within a bank or very secure place) in bangkok ? What I would like to know is : * Are they available * Who offers them and where are they * How much do they cost * What is is your experiences with the company * How safe are they I have done a search on google and cant find anything that looks genuine. I am concerned that if they do exist then how good are they and will they be there for a while. Cheers and look forward to hear from you...

ZOVOX Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 If you want something very secure, you should stick with the banks - i wouldn't trust any private businesses. I had a security box at the HSBC bank in Hong Kong - they have a branch in Bangkok, but not sure if they do security boxes there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khun Bob Posted November 4, 2004 Author Share Posted November 4, 2004 Udon - tnx very much for the yellowpages link - looks like there are quite a few ! Just wonder if anyone has had any experience with storage companies and if they care to share them ? Also on a secure safety deposit box, just wonder if anyone has had one at a bank or other place in bkk, what is was like and how much it cost ? Look forward to your replies PS - seems like there are a few people interested in storage as there are 3 recent topics on this now ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thailien8 Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 Safe deposit boxes of adequate size are in banks. Mine at a nearby Thai bank is only 400 baht a year, never a problem in ten years. I also found storage lockers in several bowling alleys, about 1500 a year, tho some are full. I've got most of my stuff in two of these lockers now, ready to flee if the bird flu becomes a human epidemic, or if terrorists start bombing Bangkok.

stroll Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 I found that banks require you to have an account and the ones I enquired at said they had no available safety boxes or I'd need to be a 'regular' customer to qualify. I used a private company in Silom a few years ago, but was not impressed with their 2-tier pricing and the fast turnover of inedaquately trained staff. I have my own safe now, but of course you'll need to be here yourself or have someone you trust to look after it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
