A logistics arrangement for conveying objects between different locations in a logistics facility, wherein the logistics arrangement comprises:

• a loading structure having a first storage area;
• a mobile robot having a second storage area configured to receive the objects from the loading structure and deliver the objects at at least one of the different locations, the mobile robot being an automated guided vehicle configured or programmed to move within the logistics facility;
• a guard module arranged at the loading structure, the guard module being configured to be operated in a closed mode and an open mode
• a proximity sensor configured to generate a proximity signal indicative that the mobile robot is within a predetermined distance from the guard module before the mobile robot contacts the guard module, and
• a controller programmed to receive the proximity signal and in response thereto cause the guard module to operate in the open mode to allow at least one of the objects to move from the loading structure to the mobile robot.
