in and made a part of this Registration Statement, as of their respective dates:

         (a)      The  Company's  Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
                  ended December 31, 1996; and

         (b)      The description of the Common Stock contained in the Company's
                  registration  statement  on Form 8-A dated  January  18,  1996
                  (File No. 0-27584),  including any amendments or reports filed
                  for the purpose of updating such description.

         All documents  subsequently  filed by the Company  pursuant to Sections
13(a),  13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
prior to the  filing of a  post-effective  amendment  which  indicates  that all
securities  offered  have been sold or which  deregisters  all  securities  then
remaining  unsold,  shall be  deemed to be  incorporated  by  reference  in this
Registration  Statement  and to be part  hereof  from the date of filing of such
documents.

         Any  statement  contained  in a document  incorporated  or deemed to be
incorporated  by reference  herein shall be deemed to be modified or  superseded
for  purposes  of this  Registration  Statement  to the extent  that a statement
herein,  or in any subsequently  filed document which also is or is deemed to be
incorporated by reference,  modifies or supersedes such statement. Any statement
so  modified  or  superseded  shall  not be  deemed,  except as so  modified  or
superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.

Item 4.  Description of Securities.

         Not applicable.

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

         The validity of the shares  offered  hereby will be passed upon for the
Company by Sullivan & Worcester LLP,  Boston,  Massachusetts.  Jas. Murray Howe,
Secretary of the Company,  is of counsel to Sullivan & Worcester  LLP and is the
owner of 3,855 shares of Common Stock.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers

         Section  145 of the  Delaware  General  Corporation  Law  (the  "DGCL")
provides, in effect, that any person made a party to any action by reason of the
fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company may
and, in certain cases,  must be indemnified by the Company against,  in the case
of a non-derivative  action,  judgments,  fines,  amounts paid in settlement and
reasonable expenses  (including  attorney's fees) incurred by him as a result of
such action, and in the case of a derivative action, against expenses (including
attorney's  fees),  if in either  type of action he acted in good faith and in a
manner he reasonably  believed to be in or not opposed to the best  interests of
the Company.  This  indemnification  does not apply, in a derivative  action, to
matters as to which it is adjudged that the director, officer, employee or agent
is liable to the Company, unless upon court order it is determined that, despite
such  adjudication  of liability,  but in view of all the  circumstances  of the
case, he is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for expenses,  and, in a
non-derivative  action,  to any  criminal  proceeding  in which such  person had
reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

Section 145 of the DGCL.

Incorporation  states that no  director  of the  Company  shall be liable to the
Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as
a  director,  except  to the  extent  that  exculpation  from  liability  is not

Item 9.  Undertakings.

         (a)  The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

                  (1) to file,  during any  period in which  offers or sales are
         being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

         (i)      to include any prospectus  required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
                  Securities Act of 1933;

         (ii)     to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after
                  the effective date of the Registration  Statement (or the most
                  recent post-effective  amendment thereof) which,  individually
                  or in the  aggregate,  represent a  fundamental  change in the
                  information set forth in the registration statement;

         (iii)    to include any material  information  with respect to the plan
                  of distribution  not previously  disclosed in the registration
                  statement or any material  change to such  information  in the
                  registration statement:

         provided,  however,  that  paragraphs  (a)(1)(i) and  (a)(1)(ii) do not
         apply if the  information  required to be included in a  post-effective
         amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by
         the Company  pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the  Securities
         Exchange  Act  of  1934  that  are  incorporated  by  reference  in the
         registration statement;


                                     II - 2


<PAGE>

                  (2) that, for the purpose of determining  any liability  under
         the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be
         deemed to be a new  registration  statement  relating to the securities
         offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall
         be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; and

                  (3) to remove from  registration by means of a  post-effective
         amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at
         the termination of the offering;

         (b) The undersigned  registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining  any liability  under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
Company's  annual  report  pursuant  to Section  13(a) or  Section  15(d) of the
Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934  (and,  where  applicable,  each  filing of an
employee  benefit  plan's  annual  report  pursuant  to  Section  15(d)  of  the
Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934)  that is  incorporated  by  reference  in the
Registration  Statement  shall  be  deemed  to be a new  registration  statement
relating to the securities offered therein,  and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; and

         (c)  Insofar  as  indemnification  for  liabilities  arising  under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors,  officers and  controlling
persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions,  or otherwise,  the
Company has been  advised  that in the opinion of the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission  such  indemnification  is against public policy as expressed in that
Act  and  is,  therefore,   unenforceable.   In  the  event  that  a  claim  for
indemnification  against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company
of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the
Company in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted
by  such  director,  officer  or  controlling  person  in  connection  with  the
securities  being  registered,  the Company  will,  unless in the opinion of its
counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,  submit to a court
of appropriate  jurisdiction the question whether such  indemnification by it is
against  public  policy as expressed in the  Securities  Act of 1933 and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         In connection with the  registration  under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the "Act"), by Iron Mountain  Incorporated,  a Delaware  corporation
(the "Company"), of 944,903 shares of its Common Stock, par value $.01 per share
("Common Stock"), which are offered by the Company pursuant to the provisions of
the Company's 1995 Stock Incentive Plan (the "1995 Plan") (all such shares being
referred  to  herein as the  "Registered  Shares"),  the  following  opinion  is
furnished to you to be filed with the  Securities and Exchange  Commission  (the
"Commission") as Exhibit 5 to the Company's  registration  statement on Form S-8
(the "Registration Statement") under the Act.

         We have  acted  as  counsel  to the  Company  in  connection  with  the
Registration Statement,  and we have examined originals or copies,  certified or
otherwise  identified to our satisfaction,  of the Registration  Statement,  the
Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company as presently in
effect,  corporate  records of the Company,  and such other documents as we have
considered necessary in order to furnish the opinion hereinafter set forth.

         This opinion is limited to the Delaware General Corporation Law and the
federal  laws of the United  States of America,  and we express no opinion  with
respect to the law of any other jurisdiction.

         Based on and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that, when
issued in  accordance  with the terms of the 1995 Plan and the  options or other
rights  granted  thereunder,  the  Registered  Shares  will be duly  authorized,
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable by the Company.
