Berkshire Grey is building Scoop into FedEx trailer unloading

FedEx’s Scoop deployment, prior RPSi sortation, and Dispatch parcel routing give Berkshire Grey a package automation path.

1 Feb 26

FedEx announced Berkshire Grey’s Scoop robotic trailer unloader in February 2026 after a multi-year collaboration. Scoop targets one of the harder parcel-facility jobs: unloading packages from trailers and containers where items arrive in irregular stacks and workers face repetitive lifting.

FedEx also pointed back to its 2021 deployment of Berkshire Grey RPSi systems for small-package sortation.

Berkshire Grey’s Dispatch parcel sorter uses intelligent identification and dynamic routing for small parcel sorting. Dispatch uses Hyperscanner technology for package identification, connecting unloading, identification, and sortation into adjacent package-handling functions.

Berkshire Grey was founded in 2013 by Tom Wagner, the former chief technology officer of iRobot.
