May be I need to explain in more details. I am only referring to "Request to
a drop-off" process.

You have inbox and outbox for pickup and dropoff  respectively for user. But
there is no record to let user know what requests have made.  With this list
(may be I call it waiting list), the user will know how many requests they
are waiting and will not make duplicate request. This also show that the
users "something has been done but waiting".

It give a chance to user to delete a "Request a Drop-off" after the request
have sent. May be it is a duplicate or send to wrong person.

 3. Allow the user to set the expiry date of the request.

That's enough. Thank you very much.
