Abstract
A method may include determining that a weighted volume of a first item in an inventory system. The weighted volume can be based on an actual volume and a weight associated with a volume category for the first item. The method may include comparing a weighted average volume based on weighted volumes for a second set of items in a container and a weighted volume of the first item with a volume threshold of the container. The method may include causing the item to be transferred to the container with respect to the comparison between the weighted average volume and the volume threshold. The method may include updating the volume threshold of the container based on a volume of a third set of items in the container after transferring the item to the container. The third set of items can include the first item and the second set of items.
