    Default Anyone stack their long boxes 5 high?

    I know 4 high is the recommended stack but a google search revealed a few people state 5 high is safe and won't crush the bottom long box. Has anyone done this? If so, how many years and did it damage any of the bottom boxes/comics?

    I did for a number of years in a storage space. No crushing. If you put a thin sheet of p,paper, between the boxes, it will help mitigate.
    There came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning! The Noble perished locked in battle with unleashed Evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!

    When it comes to stacking boxes, I haven't noticed any difference if I'm high or not.

    Are you talking a single column? If so then I'd be careful with that. Problem is that boxes can shift and if they aren't lined up exactly, the top boxes start to lean and the bottom ones start to get smooshed. If you are stacking a bunch of columns, then you could get away with a pretty high stack easily by cross-stacking.
