> Where did you get the impression that two is fine?

That part was a joke because of Flexport's layoffs due to lack of volume. The stacking is probably a separate topic compared to the success of his business, but was just stating why his name and company are familiar on HN.

I personally believe they should stack them vertically vs horizontal stacking to save space so they are always accessible vs 2-3-4 high. (also a joke)



I still don't get the bit where you say 2 high is standard. It's not. Though US port infrastructure is special, it's very outdated/inefficient compared to pretty much the rest of the world.


It's from the article last time this came around [1] "For instance, Petersen says, local zoning rules prevented the owner of truck yards in Long Beach from storing containers more than two high"
