Zusammenfassung:Embodiments of a package acceptance system, and methods of its use, are described. An apparatus includes a container at least partially disposed in a package repository having access to an unmanned vehicle portal. The container defines a chamber configured to receive a package from a user. The apparatus includes a first actuatable wall portion movably coupled to a first side of the container and configured to move in a first direction into the chamber when the first actuatable wall portion is actuated. The apparatus includes a second actuatable wall portion movably coupled to a second side of the container and configured to move in a second, different, direction into the chamber when the second actuatable wall portion is actuated. The first and second actuatable wall portions are collectively configured to move the package received in the chamber into a predetermined position.
