Systems and methods for a notification system that enable user changes to stop location for delivery and/or pickup of good and/or service

A method for a notification system having a computer-based architecture using one or more computers, one or more memories associated with the one or more computers for storing computer program code, and one or more processors for executing the computer program code, the method comprising:

• communicatively coupling the notification system with a first personal communication device (PCD) associated with a first party to engage in a first communication session so that delivery or pickup information can be exchanged;
• during the first communication session, enabling the first party to input or select at least an identification of a good or service, a quantity of the good or service, and a stop location for a delivery or pickup of the good or service;
• during the first communication session, storing the identification of the good or service, the quantity of the good or service, and the stop location for the delivery or pickup;
• analyzing timing information pertaining to when a mobile thing (MT) is to deliver or pickup the good or service at the stop location;
• causing the notification system to be communicatively coupled with the first PCD to engage in a second communication session based upon an analysis of a proximity of the MT and the stop location;
• during the second communication session, enabling the first party associated with the first PCD to select whether or not to communicate with an entity having access to particulars of the delivery or pickup;
• during the second communication session, when the first party selects to communicate with the entity, causing the timing information to be communicated to the first PCD;
• and
• during the second communication session, enabling the first party to change the stop location.

A notification system having a computer-based architecture using one or more computers, the notification system comprising:

• means for communicatively coupling the system with a first personal communication device (PCD) associated with a first party to engage in a first communication session so that delivery or pickup information can be exchanged;
• means for, during the first communication session, enabling the first party to input or select at least an identification of a good or service, a quantity of the good or service, and a stop location for a delivery or pickup of the good or service;
• means for, during the first communication session, storing the identification of the good or service, the quantity of the good or service, and the stop location for the delivery or pickup;
• means for analyzing timing information pertaining to when a mobile thing (MT) is to deliver or pickup the good or service at the stop location;
• means for causing communicatively coupling of the notification system with the first PCD to engage in a second communication session based upon an analysis of a proximity of the MT and the stop location;

• means for, during the second communication session, when the first party selects to communicate with the entity, causing the timing information to be communicated to the first PCD;
• and
• means for, during the second communication session, enabling the first party to change the stop location.
