Abstract: Described in detail herein are systems and methods for automated storage receptacle processing. Sensors, disposed with respect to storage receptacles scan the storage volume of a storage container and detect physical objects disposed in the storage volume of the storage receptacle. The sensors can determine an amount of unoccupied space in the storage volume of the storage receptacle and transmit an indication of the determined unoccupied amount of space to a computing system. The computing system can calculate a percentage of occupied storage volume in the storage receptacle and transmit a command to control the operation of a motor of the door at which the at least one storage receptacle is disposed based on the calculated percentage. The computing system may also be configured to transmit a message to a vehicle tasked with moving the storage container based on the determined amount of unoccupied space.
