Not sure about the Sugar Land area, but I had Wachovia and had a safe deposit box there. Then when Wells Fargo bought them out, they moved my stuff for me to the Wells fargo location. While there is an actual bank here in Atascocita for Wells Fargo, my safe deposit box location is in Kingwood.

Luckily it's still the same box number and key!!

I used to rent such safe deposit box but found it very impractical. There is a limited access on the weekends and holidays ( forget about an emergency!) and they are not insured:
Safe Deposit Boxes: Anything that you put in a safe deposit box is not insured by the FDIC. Some banks do insure these boxes separately. Before you put anything into a safe deposit box, you need to read the contract so that you know exactly what is covered. If the box and its contents are destroyed, you may be on the hook. Some prefer to get their own theft or fire insurance to protect them from losses related to safe deposit box. In most cases, if the bank fails, you will receive instructions on how to proceed to get access to your safe deposit box.
Now I have a big safe in my house. It is covered by insurance and I have 24/7 access to it.
