A character recognition device includes a recognizer that recognizes at least one character string from an image including a trailer captured by an imaging device, and a selector. The selector selects character strings conforming to a specified notation format among the character strings recognized by the recognizer as candidates of a trailer ID/container ID, and that selects one of the candidates of the trailer ID/container ID, which has a similarity to master data of a previously held trailer ID/container ID equal to or larger than a predetermined threshold value as the trailer ID/container ID.
