In some embodiments, apparatuses and methods are provided herein useful to loading totes. In some embodiments, there is provided a system for loading totes on shelves of racks secured inside a delivery truck including: a plurality of hydraulic lifts. Each of the plurality of hydraulic lifts comprises: a hydraulic system; a top surface; a stop mechanism; and at least one lift-to-rack alignment sensor; and a control circuit configured to: access a multi-dimensional positional matrix; determine a physical location associated with a tote based at least on the multi-dimensional positional matrix and a tote identifier; determine a particular hydraulic lift of the plurality of hydraulic lifts based on the physical location; activate the stop mechanism to position the tote on the top surface of the particular hydraulic lift; and operate the hydraulic system to move the tote to a height of a shelf of a rack based on the physical location.
