Methods, systems, and media for validating objects within a container, such that a validation system confirms that objects within a container are valid i.e., ready to be shipped from a data center for reuse or ready to be destroyed. The validation system can be used to identify objects, e.g., media, disks, etc., and determine if valid objects are at the correct processing location to be shipped or destroyed. The methods may include identifying the objects, locating an identifier on the object, comparing the identifiers to known identifiers and determining, based on the comparison, if valid objects are at the correct processing location to be shipped or destroyed. The validation system may also use image processing techniques, such as blob detection, to identify invalid objects in the container. The system may reject the entire container if invalid objects are detected.
