Peter, they are stored 4 high and 4 deep. Although can only guess, the high
retrieval accounts (lawyers and accountants) are generally in the first two
rows, with other clients being in the back two.
Interesting comment about the blaze, and I am sure a bit tongue in cheek.
Let me ask you, how successful were you the last time you tried burning a
telephone book? The tighter and less air available, the less likely hood of
a catastrophic fire. The more air around paper, the easier the burn.

I disagree I've seen the sturdier boxes suffer crushing. I can understand
stacking boxes 4 high if they the retrieval rate is extremely low, but for
the life of me I can't understand why a vendor would store 4 high thus
increasing the risk of injury to their employees because they are having to
move so boxes.
So here's an operational question. How long does it take to retrieve one box
on the last bottom row in the middle of a 4 high stack compared to the 3
high stack? Are you storing 2 deep or 3 deep?
Of course I imagine the more densely you pack the boxes into a given space
the better the blaze
