WHAT IS CLAIMED IS:

1. A sensor tag for attachment to at least a portion of a tracked container, the sensor tag comprising:

a wireless transceiver that reports an electronic identifier;

a logistics sensor;

a power source providing power to the sensor tag; and

a closure that removably attaches to the container, wherein:

removal of the closure from the tracked container allows access to contents of the tracked container,

removal of the closure prevents reinstalling the closure to

achieve a closed state;

a removed state is determined with data from the logistics sensor once the closure is removed,

the removal state is reported with the electronic identifier by the wireless transceiver away from the sensor tag, and

in response to reporting the removal state, a remote command is received by the wireless transceiver to remove the power source from the sensor tag to preserve power until the sensor tag is recycled.

2. The sensor tag for attachment to at least the portion of a container of claim 1, wherein the breakable loop comprises a flexible tape section including teeth that engage a ratcheting pawl in a one way fashion upon insertion of the flexible tape section into the ratcheting pawl.

3. The sensor tag for attachment to at least the portion of a container of claim 1, wherein the electronic identification circuit is a Bluetooth™ beacon.

4. The sensor tag for attachment to at least the portion of a container of claim 1, the sensor tag further comprising a breakable link, wherein the breakable link includes an electrical connection.

5. The sensor tag for attachment to at least the portion of a container of claim 1, the sensor tag further comprising a breakable link, wherein the breakable link is replaceable.

6. A sensor tag for attachment to at least a portion of a tracked container, the sensor tag comprising:

a wireless transceiver that reports an electronic identifier;

a logistics sensor;

a power source providing power to the sensor tag, wherein the power source is not active until removal of a non-conductive flap; and

a breakable link that removably attaches to the container, wherein:

removal of the sensor tag from the tracked container is

determined with data from the logistics sensor, and

the removal is reported by the wireless transceiver away from the sensor tag.

7. The sensor tag for attachment to at least the portion of a container of claim 6, wherein the breakable loop comprises a flexible tape section including teeth that engage a ratcheting pawl in a one way fashion upon insertion of the flexible tape section into the ratcheting pawl.

8. The sensor tag for attachment to at least the portion of a container of claim 6, wherein the electronic identification circuit is a Bluetooth™ beacon.

9. The sensor tag for attachment to at least the portion of a container of claim 6, wherein the electronic identification circuit is a RFID circuit.

10. The sensor tag for attachment to at least the portion of a container of claim 6, wherein the power source is a coin battery.

11. The sensor tag for attachment to at least the portion of a container of claim 6, wherein the power source is a wireless power receiver.

12. The sensor tag for attachment to at least the portion of a container of claim 6, wherein the breakable link includes an electrical connection.

13. The sensor tag for attachment to at least the portion of a container of claim 6, wherein the breakable link prevents opening the container when unbroken.

14. The sensor tag for attachment to at least the portion of a container of claim 6, wherein the breakable link is replaceable.

15

15. A sensor tag for attachment to at least a portion of a tracked container, the sensor tag comprising:

a wireless transceiver that reports an electronic identifier;

a logistics sensor;

a power source providing power to the sensor tag; and

a closure that removably attaches to the container, wherein:

removal of the closure from the tracked container allows access to contents of the tracked container,

a removed state is determined with data from the logistics sensor,

recording the removed state in the logistics sensor indicating that reconditioning is required,

the removal state is reported with the electronic identifier by the wireless transceiver away from the sensor tag,

replacing the closure as part of reconditioning, and resetting the removed state as stored in the logistics sensor.

16. The sensor tag for attachment to at least the portion of a container of claim 15, wherein the breakable loop comprises a flexible tape section including teeth that engage a ratcheting pawl in a one way fashion upon insertion of the flexible tape section into the ratcheting pawl.

17. The sensor tag for attachment to at least the portion of a container of claim 15, wherein the electronic identification circuit is a Bluetooth™ beacon.

18. The sensor tag for attachment to at least the portion of a container of claim 15, the sensor tag further comprising a breakable link, wherein the breakable link includes an electrical connection.

19. The sensor tag for attachment to at least the portion of a container of claim 15, the sensor tag further comprising a breakable link, wherein the breakable link prevents opening the container when unbroken.

20. The sensor tag for attachment to at least the portion of a container of claim 15, the sensor tag further comprising a breakable link, wherein the breakable link is replaceable.
