This adjective commonly suggests an abundance or surplus of the piled item.
"Heaped" can apply to a wide range of materials or objects, such as a pile of dirt, rocks, leaves, or even dishes in a sink, clothes on the floor, or papers on a desk. It is often used to characterize situations where things have been hastily or untidily assembled, resulting in a substantial, unorganized mass.
