a control circuit communicatively coupled to the database, the delivery agent interface, and the vehicle cargo space sensors, the control circuit configured to:

receive registration information from the delivery agent via the delivery agent interface;

select, using vehicle cargo space sensor data, one or more registered commercial product delivery vehicles having a desired available cargo space for delivery of a purchase order; and

present, via the delivery agent interface, a delivery opportunity to delivery agents of the selected one or more registered commercial product delivery vehicles.

2 . The system of claim 1 , wherein in selecting the one or more registered commercial product delivery vehicles the control circuit is further configured to:

determine, using the generated data, available cargo space within a registered commercial product delivery vehicle of the one or more registered commercial product delivery vehicles.

3 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the control circuit is further configured to select one or more cargo spaces having a storage condition that is compatible with at least a portion of the purchase order.

4 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the control circuit is further configured to determine geometric configurations of the cargo spaces.

5 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the control circuit is further configured to estimate delivery requirements for the plurality of purchase orders by accessing the database to determine at least one of weight, volume, and geometric configuration of one or more products in the purchase order.

6 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising environmental sensors in proximity to the cargo spaces, the environmental sensors communicatively coupled to the control circuit and each configured to generate environmental data associated with the cargo spaces, and wherein the environmental data comprises at least one of temperature readings and humidity readings.

7 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the control circuit is further configured to compare the desired available cargo space to dimensions of one or more products within the purchase order and determine an optimized storage orientation for the one or more products within the purchase order.

8 . The system of claim 1 , wherein

the registered delivery vehicles are non-commercial vehicles and the registration information received via the delivery agent interface comprises at least one of vehicle make and vehicle model; and

the control circuit is further configured to compare the available cargo space to manufacturer supplied cargo capacity ratings based on the registration information received from the delivery agent.

9 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the delivery agent interface is at least one of: provided to the electronic user device by the control circuit or executed by the electronic user device when in communication with the control circuit.

10 . A method of determining available cargo capacity for multiple commercial product delivery vehicles, comprising:

receiving, via a control circuit, registration information from a delivery agent via a delivery agent interface;

receiving, via the control circuit, a purchase order from a customer, the purchase order having one or more commercial products requiring delivery thereof;

monitoring, via the control circuit, available cargo space within cargo spaces of a plurality of registered commercial product delivery vehicles via vehicle capacity sensors positioned proximate to the cargo spaces, each vehicle capacity sensor configured to monitor available cargo space within an associated cargo space, each vehicle capacity sensor configured to emit and capture a wireless signal to monitor available cargo space of the associated cargo space; each vehicle capacity sensor configured to generate, using the wireless signal, data comprising at least one of point cloud data, time of flight data, and triangulation data;

selecting, via the control circuit, one or more registered commercial product delivery vehicles having available cargo space compatible with the one or more commercial products; and

presenting, via the control circuit using the delivery agent interface, a delivery opportunity to delivery agents of the selected one or more registered commercial product delivery vehicles.

11 . The method of claim 10 , wherein the step of selecting the one or more commercial products comprises determining, using the generated data, available cargo space within a registered commercial product delivery vehicle of the one or more registered commercial product delivery vehicles.

12 . The method of claim 10 , further comprising selecting, via the control circuit, one or more cargo spaces having a storage condition that is compatible with at least a portion of the one or more commercial products.

13 . The method of claim 10 , further comprising determining, via the control circuit, geometric configurations of the cargo spaces.

14 . The method of claim 10 , further comprising estimating, via the control circuit, delivery requirements of the purchase order by determining at least one of weight, volume, and geometric configuration of the one or more commercial products.

15 . The method of claim 10 , further comprising generating, via the control circuit using environmental sensor data, environmental data associated with the cargo spaces, the environmental sensor data captured by environmental sensors positioned proximate to the cargo spaces and configured to measure at least one of temperature and humidity within the associated cargo space.

16 . The method of claim 10 , further comprising:

comparing, via the control circuit, the available cargo spaces of the selected one or more registered delivery vehicles to dimensions of the one or more commercial products; and

determining, via the control circuit, an optimized storage orientation for the one or more commercial products in the purchase order within the available cargo spaces.

17 . The method of claim 10 , wherein the registered delivery vehicles comprise non-commercial vehicles.

18 . The method of claim 10 , wherein the delivery agent interface is at least one of: provided to an electronic user device by the control circuit or executed by an electronic user device when in communication with the control circuit.
