So you mean like banks providing free safety deposit boxes?
They aren't getting any revenue from it if they are providing it for free.
Also, you can't claim it as a deduction on your taxes if it's free.
Good thing about a safe is it is a secure place to store your valuables. And banks safe's are typically very safe.

Hi,

The above link explains about this free option for employees.
I agree with the answer before this one. But, I really can't think of any disadvantages of having it for free.
