SentrySafe Fire and Water Resistant Portable Bag with Zipper for Money or Document Storage, FBWLZ0SSC

More people - especially disabled veterans - should take this advice: take all your critical documents (WILL, birth & marriage certificates, SS card, DD-214, VA disability determination letter, etc etc) and put them in one of these document protectors, clearly marked, and put it in a personal safe. Then write a letter to your spouse (or other family member) from YOU beyond the grave, explaining where EVERYTHING is: phone numbers, account numbers, access to passwords, insurance policies... your entire life. Keep it updated and make sure your spouse knows where it is so when you die (and we all do that), your spouse can grab that letter instead of panicking. All your vital documents in one place will make it easier for your grieving survivors to make final arrangements and get survivor benefits.She and I both have a folder, marked by name, in our big safe. When I depart this body, I want that letter to tell her how to access my entire life: especially things like bills, automated payments and the retirement pay that needs to stop immediately. Our former tax deduction son knows where it all in in case she and I are both killed in a car wreck or something.This document bag has proven so useful that, as Treasurer for our local Disabled American Veterans chapter, I bought one to use for all the chapter's paperwork (founding charter, IRS tax-exempt letter, etc) that we'd been paying to keep in a bank safe deposit box. Now it's all in our safe - if something happens to me, they know how to contact our son, who can open our safe and give it to them.All that to say that this is far more valuable than the cost. I highly recommend this!

I haven't lit this on fire or soaked it in water, so I can't speak to its resistance to those elements. However, I was really impressed at how heavy duty this pouch is. It feels like quality, sturdy and thick. I am using it to store paperwork and some thicker items, and it accommodates both letter sized and A4 sized paper. It will "bellows" out enough to store items a few inches thick while still zipping easily. The flap closes over the zipper with two snaps. Overall, I am very pleased.

It does its job, well built.

For the small documents that I have, it makes me feel a little safer knowing it waterproof and I hope fire proof.

Use these for documents that need protection. Also recommend keeping documents in these bags so that in case of natural disaster or fires. You can quickly toss these in your backpack and have your valuable documents with you. I have them for my go bag in case of natural or manmade disasters like wildfire or flooding.

Nice for documents to keep it safe from water and fire

Fire and Water proof for paper items perfect but I did not try it out, meaning I did not put it on fire or soak it under water.

Great value
