An example portable container is described. The example portable container includes a body, a handle, a pair of wheels, a wheel lock, and an authenticator. The body includes walls that form an inner chamber configured and dimensioned to receive one or more items. The handle is mounted to the body, and the pair of wheels is mounted to the body. The wheel lock is configured to selectively engage and disengage at least one wheel of the pair of wheels. Engagement of the at least one wheel with the wheel lock restricts rotation of the wheel. The authenticator is configured to authenticate a user for transporting the portable container. If the authenticator fails to authenticate the user, the wheel lock is actuated to engage the at least one wheel of the pair of wheels to restrict rotation of the wheel.
