"textContent": "A system including: a self-contained module configured to install within a cargo vehicle; and a controller. The self-contained module includes: a shelf assembly; and a robotic assembly. The shelf assembly includes: shelves configured to store packages; and a chute extending between the shelves and configured to locate proximal a driver cab of the cargo vehicle. The robotic assembly includes: an end effector configured to manipulate the packages; a robotic arm configured to manipulate the end effector across the shelves; and an elevator configured to maneuver the robotic arm between the shelves. The controller is configured to: identify a shelf occupied by a package associated with a delivery location; trigger the elevator to maneuver the robotic arm to the shelf; and trigger the robotic arm to withdraw the package, via the end effector, toward the chute prior to arrival of the cargo vehicle at the delivery location.",
