The storage system includes a base that supports a container for accommodating articles and a transport robot for transporting the container. The transport robot has a load unit that can load the container and a lift unit for moving the load unit in the vertical direction. The transport robot has a switch unit for switching between a state in which the base restricts the vertical movement of the container and a state in which the base does not restrict the vertical movement of the container. When the storage system increases the number of containers supported by the base, the lift unit moves the container to be stored from a position below the support position on the base to the support position in a state in which the base does not restrict the vertical movement of the container. After the container to be stored reaches the support position, the switch unit switches from a state in which the base does not restrict the vertical movement of the container to a state in which the base restricts the vertical movement of the container.
