The present invention relates to conveyance method for transporting a plurality of unprocessed/processed objects between an automatic transporting device (AGV) and a semiconductor manufacturing device (prober). The prober has a load port to/from which the objects are delivered from/to the AGV. The method comprises the steps of: making a communication between the AGV and the prober to decide respective timings of deliveries of the objects to/from the load port; and transporting the objects between the AGV and the prober via the load port, with the timings of the deliveries of the objects to/from the load port shifted from each other by using a holding site for provisionally holding the object. The holding site is at least one of components of the AGV and the prober other than the load port.
