Abstract
A control method is for a mobile object that automatically moves in situation where signs each indicating a position are provided on a ceiling of a lateral area on a first direction side with respect to a parking area where a transportation vehicle is parked, along a second direction that intersects the first direction and that is along the parking area. The method includes acquiring positional information of the mobile object by causing the mobile object to detect at least one of the signs; causing the mobile object to move within the lateral area toward the second direction based on the positional information of the mobile object; and causing the mobile object to move toward the parking area by causing the mobile object to turn and move toward an opposite side to the first direction after causing the mobile object to move within the lateral area toward the second direction.
