piler

One who stacks

A piler is someone or something that piles—that accumulates or stacks things: She's a piler, not a filer.

The word distinguishes people who let papers and objects accumulate in heaps rather than organizing them systematically.

In industrial contexts, a piler is machinery that stacks materials like lumber or sheet goods.
