I'm not certain what might be considered to be "industry standard", but it
would be unlikely that any storage vendor would provide liability for the
true value of the information included in a box.  If they did so, either the
cost for storage would have to be higher to cover the insurance costs, OR
the storage vendor would likely offer your company the opportunity to
purchase the additional insurance.

That's not a "bad thing" to my way of thinking, because I don't know that
any organization insures its own storage facilities for any particular value
"per box" at all....

Hi all,
I was wondering about the contract with my records storage vendor.  There is
a clause in the contract that states that their liability for loss, damage,
or destruction is limited to $2 a box.  Is this industry standard?
Thanks,
