It's clearly spelled out on the form you had to sign. Of course, I can't find mine right now either, so someone else should probably dig it up.
in case no one else does, here is my best recollection, take it for what it's worth: If you don't use the box for at least one month (maybe it was slightly longer, but around this length), they have the right to take the contents. I'm not sure if they have to put the contents in the "unclaimed money" drawer for a time or not, but eventually (if not immediately) they can just claim the contents for themselves.
Create a will. Put instructions for getting your money out of your box in the will.
