I suspect maybe a lot of government documents? I know that our county
lost a bunch of property records in a fire many, many years ago. Some of
our property records can not be retrieved.

Here in the Chicago suburbs, a 250k sqft document storage warehouse
just burned down. It took them a week to put out the fire. 30' Racks
stacked with banker boxes, when the building sprinklers hit it, the
paper got waterlogged and got too heavy for the racks to support and
came down, taking roof supports and building sprinkler system down
with them. Once the roof was opened up, the fire got lots of air, and
just started raging. With the roof gone, nothing was holding up the
precast walls, etc.etc. Basically there's no more building left.
So what kind of paper documents are stored in warehouses like this?
Bank Documents? Law office contracts? The Panama Papers? I'm just
curious what the market is for industrial scale paper storage like
this. I see a lot of storage places like this around the suburbs.
Iron Mountain has a couple big facilities. I'm guessing you are
responsible for your own redundant copies at multiple storage
warehouses? Also seems like if there are just boxes of papers stacked
on a shelf, there's really no security.
