It's A Digital Disease!

So I am an avid photographer and currently store my photos in my pCloud lifetime account as well as three drives (2 SSDs and one hard drive) which all have a copy of what is in my pCloud account. I really want an additional off-site backup, as I have been in a number of house fires and break ins and just want to be safe.

My YMCA has lockers that can be rented. I had the idea today of renting one and placing an SSD with an encrypted backup of my photos on it. Would this be a good idea? I figure the chance of it getting broken into would be less than that of a safe deposit box (who breaks in to a locker to steal underwear lol), and it would allow easier access because I can access it whenever I work out.
