Abstract

A scheduling method and apparatus for a cargo unit. The method comprises: acquiring a first number of caching positions and a second number of occupied caching positions in a first storage area (100), wherein the first storage area (100) comprises at least one storage rack (120), and a plurality of caching positions and a plurality of storage positions are preset on the storage rack (120); according to the first number and the second number, determining a caching position usage rate of the first storage area (100) (204); when the caching position usage rate reaches a preset usage rate threshold value, determining a target cargo unit from cargo units which are cached by the occupied caching positions (206); and sending a cargo unit carrying instruction to a first carrying device (110) in the first storage area (100), so as to control the first carrying device (110) to carry the target cargo unit to a target vacant storage position (208). By means of the scheduling method and apparatus, the carrying time of a first carrying device (110) can be saved on, the processing period of the first carrying device (110) can be shortened, and the carrying efficiency of the first carrying device (110) can be improved.
