Who runs it
Oregon Treasury has auctioned safe-deposit-box contents online through Capitol Auction & Estate Services. Sale proceeds go into the Common School Fund, and the principal from each sale is kept for the item's owner to claim. Banks report box contents two years after the rental period expires.
