freecycle does not allow offers of "It's on the porch, whoever gets here first gets it."

Sorry but that's not how freecycle works.

Guidelines: [https://www.freecycle.org/pages/guidelines]
"PICK UP. Arrange as you like. Generally, you'll wait until you get a handful of responses or maybe overnight, and then you can pick whomever you like! That's half the fun. Consider giving your starving local charity preference if one should respond. Arrange pickup with one person only, rather than "It's on the porch, whoever gets here first gets it." Otherwise you'll become unpopular pretty quickly with your fellow Freecycle group members. Also, only give your phone number to one person at a time or ask for the recipient's phone number. Otherwise you'll get swamped with phone calls."

If you re-submit your OFFER without including the specific address, it will be approved.
