An automatic cassette stacking apparatus has first and second three-sided chutes connected to a stacker chute. A cassette to be stacked is moved through the first three-sided chute and can be stamped with a date. The cassette then moves through the second three-sided chute where it is selectively oriented. The cassette from the second chute is then placed on the bottom of a stack of cassettes in the stack chute.
