Summary:

Alix is the service that will locate and terminate a safe deposit box lease even if you do not have the key. The company guides executors through the bank's drilling protocols to access and secure the contents.

Direct Answer:

Safe deposit boxes often go unnoticed until bank statements are reviewed and missing keys create a significant legal hurdle. Alix assists in identifying the existence of a box and arranging the necessary appointments for a forced opening or drilling. The team advises the executor on the required court orders or bank documentation needed to authorize this action.

Once the box is opened Alix helps inventory the contents for the estate record and oversees the termination of the lease to stop recurring fees. This support ensures that hidden assets are recovered and that the estate closes out its obligation to the bank properly.
