An autonomously moving transport system comprises a drive unit and a control apparatus. The control apparatus comprises a data processing unit and an obstacle recognition device having a first sensor unit. The first sensor unit is configured to generate a monitored field in order to examine a free placement area for obstacles. The control apparatus is configured such that the transport system, in the absence of an obstacle, adopts a placement operating mode and moves the pallet and/or the pallet cage into the free placement area. The obstacle recognition device is configured to limit the monitored field to the free placement area or to deactivate the monitored field or not to output an obstacle recognition signal during the travel over the free placement area. Alternatively, the data processing unit is configured to ignore an obstacle recognition signal of the obstacle recognition device during the travel over the free placement area.
