To provide an article storage facility capable of accommodating an article by the sorting destination, shortening the delivery time, and improving the stacking accuracy.

When a container F2 having the same sorting destination as that of a container F1 to be carried in from a storing conveyor K1 is stored in a same article storage unit D, the container F1 carried in onto an elevating/lowering table 3 from the storing conveyor K1 and the container F2 carried in onto the elevating/lowering table 3 from the same article storage unit D are stacked on the elevating/lowering table 3, and stacked containers F3 are stored in the same article storage unit D. Thus, the containers F3 can be delivered from the same article storage unit D at one time during the delivery work, and the time required for the delivery can be shortened.
