An article placement apparatus, a stocker provided including the article placement apparatus, and a transport vehicle system, prevent an article from being damaged at time of placement of the article, even when an erector vertically erecting from the support is provided. The article placement apparatus includes a support on which the storage container is placed, and a side erector that vertically erects from the support and extends in a transfer direction of the storage container, the side erector restricting the storage container placed on the support from moving in a width direction that is horizontally orthogonal to the transfer direction. The side erector is provided with a guide that guides the storage container obliquely upward from the front side toward the rear side when the storage container transferred by the stacker crane comes into contact.
