BUSINESS BANKING: ADDITIONAL SERVICES
Night Depository
Don’t have time to make it to the bank! Use Sauk Valley Bank’s 24-hour Night Depository at any of our three convenient banking facilities.
It is a safe, secure way of making deposits when the bank is closed (for individuals or businesses). Businesses might want to use a night drop bag with lock and key. You can drop off bags at night and pick them up the next morning or working day.

Three convenient, well-lighted locations. Deposits verified by two employees. Records kept of all night deposits received. Receipts mailed to you. No worry about cash held at home or office.

Safeguard your family heirlooms, irreplaceable items with great sentimental value, stock certificates, your will, and your insurance policies in a safe deposit box. We offer a variety of sizes and prices.
Direct Deposit Service
With our FREE direct deposit service, your U.S. government check, Social Security, retirement or paycheck can be electronically deposited into your bank account, eliminating trips to the bank as well as concern about lost or stolen checks.
Wire Transfer Service
If you or someone you know needs cash in a hurry, we can arrange a same-day transfer to almost any location, foreign or domestic. Small amounts can be arranged by phone, while higher amounts require written authorization signed by the account owner.
Foreign Currency & Drafts
We can obtain currency for most foreign countries. Simply notify us seven to ten days before you need the money. Foreign drafts are also available.
Cashier Checks and Personal Money Orders
If you’re making a sizeable cash purchase or transaction, a cashier check or personal money order is a good option. Recognized and accepted as readily as cash by almost every store, resort, or institution, they represent the bank’s obligation rather than your personal obligation.
Savings Bonds
United States Savings Bonds offer attractive rates of interest and are a good way to build up long-term savings. The interest you earn is not taxable until the bond is redeemed. Buy a Savings Bond from any teller or ask for details about current rates.
