Thanks for the responses. One last question on the matter. I was also asked if they could store the plastic commodities up to the acceptable height on the racks and then put additional Class I-IV commodities above them up to their allowable height. Is this allowed? I thought I read somewhere that is wasn't but can't find it now.

The majority of the product will be completely enclosed in a cardboard box but some of them will be in a cardboard box but with no top. Am I right to consider the ones with no top as an "open-top" container and must be stored only on the lowest level of the racks? Would these now be considered exposed non-expanded plastic. I was thinking no because the packaging surrounding the commodity will absorb water and retard the burning hazard of the commodity.
