A system for enhanced interaction with a node-based logistics receptacle. The system includes a wireless accessory sensor node on the receptacle that monitors one or more of storage receptacle components of the receptacle to generate internal sensor data and that monitors a local environment proximate the receptacle to generate external sensor data. The system also includes a bridge node on the receptacle that detects a wireless communication signal, detects placement of a delivery item proximate the receptacle based upon the external sensor data without information reflecting the interaction with the one or more of the storage receptacle components using the internal sensor data, transmits a verification message, receives a verification confirmation message, and transmits external deposit information to a backend server related to the detected placement of the delivery item to cause the backend server to initiate a dispatched logistics operation related to the receptacle.
