Stacking and piling are both methods of placing objects on top of each other, but they differ in their arrangement, orientation, purpose, precision, and required equipment. Stacking involves arranging objects in a neat and orderly manner, often vertically, for organization or space-saving purposes. In contrast, piling involves placing objects horizontally in a haphazard manner to create a foundation or support structure for construction purposes.
