An article transport facility includes a transport conveyor () and a weighing device (), which includes a support portion () for supporting a container (C) and a measuring portion () configured to measure a weight of the container (C) supported by the support portion (). The article transport facility is configured to perform a state change between a withdrawn state in which the support portion () is withdrawn downward relative to a transport surface (A) and a protruding state in which the support portion () protrudes upward relative to the transport surface (A) by moving the support portion () and the transport conveyor () relative to each other in a vertical direction (Z). A support surface (A) of the support portion () is inclined such that one corner portion (A) of multiple corner portions () located at corners of the container (C) is lower than the other corner portions ().
