The system may include a controller configured to determine a first size of a first item, determine a second size of a second item, determine a first position for the first moveable sidewall based at least in part on the first size and the second size, determine a second position for the second moveable sidewall at least in part on the first size and the second size, cause the first moveable sidewall to move to the first position, and cause the second moveable sidewall to move to the second position.
