    According to the above site, that is not a law but a suggestion by the American Safe Deposit Association (ASDA).

    Other items that should not be stored in a safe-deposit box, according to the ASDA, include: firearms, ammunition, illegal substances and items of an odorous nature, specifically dead fish. (McLin tells of a customer of a bank in Orlando who was denied a loan. He vented his frustration by putting a dead fish in his safe-deposit box and refused to retrieve it. "It took forever to get the odor out of the bank.")
