One thing to keep in mind, some manufacture’s recommendations do not permit 
full totes to be stacked more than 2-high.  Empty may be different.  Check with 
the Tote vendor on their stacking limitations.

Interesting question. I guess it would depend if a fire could sufficiently 
weaken the steel to cause the pile to collapse. May depend on the contents
