A scrap stacking apparatus includes a stacking portion to which scraps, generated in processing portions that carry out processes on sheets, are stacked, an oscillation portion that is placed out of the stacking portion, and generates an electromagnetic wave, and a receiving portion that is placed out of the stacking portion, and receives the electromagnetic wave oscillated by the oscillation portion through the stacking portion, wherein the oscillation portion generates an electromagnetic wave in a band from 30 GHz to 100 THz, and the electromagnetic wave, oscillated by the oscillation portion, is received by the receiving portion through the stacking portion so that a stacked state of the scraps housed in the stacking portion is detected.
