1. A computer-implemented method for verifying contents of storage containers on a cart, the method comprising:
receiving, from at least one scanner device, scan data identifying an item for placement into at least one storage container on an item storage cart;
identifying, by a cart manager component implemented by a processor, a selected storage container assigned to the identified item;
outputting, by a user interface component implemented by the processor, a graphical representation of a location of the identified item on an item display within an item selection area;
based on identifying the selected storage container, releasing a locking mechanism to enable user access to at least a portion of an aperture associated with the selected storage container, wherein releasing the locking mechanism associated with the selected storage container includes preventing release of other locking mechanisms associated with other storage containers on the item storage cart until the locking mechanism associated with the selected storage container is re-engaged;
determining, by an analysis component implemented by the processor, that the identified item is placed into the selected storage container based on weight data generated by at least one weight sensor associated with at least the selected storage container;
responsive to the determination that the identified item is placed into the selected storage container, re-engaging the locking mechanism associated with the selected storage container.
