In some embodiments, systems and methods are provided herein useful to assess or determine available cargo capacity for multiple commercial product delivery vehicles. In certain embodiments, systems are provided to determine available cargo capacity for multiple vehicles and may include sensors, delivery agent interfaces, and databases communicatively coupled to control circuits. Sensors may be disposed in proximity to cargo spaces of registered commercial product delivery vehicles, such that the sensors may (i) emit and capture wireless signals to monitor available cargo space within the vehicle; and (ii) generate point cloud data, time of flight data, and/or triangulation data. Databases may include purchase orders having product and/or associated product attributes. Delivery agent interfaces may be configured to operate on electronic user devices associated with delivery agents. Control circuit may receive registration information, select registered delivery vehicles using sensor data, and present delivery opportunities to delivery agents using the delivery agent interfaces.
