Systems and methods for coordinating container transportation. A method of autonomously transporting a cargo container includes aligning a distribution vehicle with the cargo container. The distribution vehicle is aligned with and hitched to the cargo container. An attachment can be connected to the cargo container for mating systems of the cargo container with the distribution vehicle. A system has inputs for vehicle and container location, arrival and departure times, facility plans, and can coordinate the autonomous movement of containers in a facility or a yard.
