A device for feeding and stacking documents in a box uses a driven endless belt arranged to sweep tightly along an open side of the box whereby documents may be taken in succession from a feeding station along the belt to the box. The open side of the box is oriented substantially vertically for receiving and thus stacking the documents in an upright position, and a guide roller with an over-shooting guide sheet is located adjacent the bottom edge of the open side to guide upwardly the belt and any form thereon to the open side of the box and to a belt roller located at a higher level than the guide means, while forming an acute angle with the plane of the open side, so that the trailing edge of each document snaps out from contact with the guide sheet before its leading edge abuts a stop surface provided at the upper edge of the box.
