Passing dates from form into blade view

I have a shopping cart that has a pick-up and return date option that needs to be selected. I cannot get either of them to be echoed into the cart view when they are selected. I am using the Laravel Shopping Cart library to build the cart, which has an array for the extra options. I have passed the values into there to pass into the view, but it doesn't seem to work.

Here is the form mark:

<form action=" " method="POST">
                    
                    <fieldset>
                        <div class="formrow" style="margin-right: -10;">
                            <div class="formitem col1" style="margin-right: -10">
                                <label class="label req" for="pickupDate" style="float:left;">Pick Up Date</label>
                                <input type="date" name="pickupDate" id="pickupDate" class="pickupDate"/>
                            </div>
                        </div>
                        <div class="formrow" style="margin-right: -10;">
                            <div class="formitem col1" style="margin-right: -10">
                                <label class="label req" for="returnDate" style="float:left;">Return Date</label>
                                <input type="date" name="returnDate" id="returnDate" class="return" />
                            </div>
                        </div>
                        <div class="formrow" style="margin-right: -10;">
                            <div class="formitem col1of2" style="float: left;">
                                <label class="label" for="location" style="float:left;">Pick Up Location</label>
                                <select name="location" id="location" class="location">
                                    <option>please choose</option>
                                    <option value="bakersfield">Bakersfield</option>
                                    <option value="chico">Chico</option>
                                    <option value="fresno">Fresno</option>
                                    <option value="hayward">Hayward</option>
                                    <option value="manteca">Manteca</option>

                                    <option value="redwood_city">Redwood City</option>
                                    <option value="sacramento">Sacramento</option>
                                    <option value="salinas">Salinas</option>
                                    <option value="san_jose">San Jose</option>
                                    <option value="san_jose_fusion">San Jose Fusion</option>
                                    <option value="santa_rosa">Santa Rosa</option>
                                </select>
                            </div>
                        </div>
                    </fieldset>
                    <input type="hidden" name="id" value="">
                    <input type="hidden" name="title" value="">
                    <input type="hidden" name="pickupDate" value="">
                    <input type="hidden" name="returnDate" value="returnDate">
                    <div class="buttons">
                        <div class="back">
                            <button class="primary button" type="submit">Add to Cart</button>
                        </div>
                    </div>
                </form>

Here is the cart view:

<article>
        @if(session()->has('success_message'))
        <div class="alert alert-success">
            
        </div>
        @endif
        <h1>Shopping Cart</h1>
        @if(count($errors) > 0)
        <div class="alert alert-danger">
            <ul>
                @foreach ($errors->all() as $error)
                <li></li>
                @endforeach
            </ul>
        </div>
        @endif
        @if (Cart::count() > 0)
        <h2> item(s) in Shopping Cart</h2>
        <div>
            <div>
                @foreach (Cart::content() as $item)
                <fieldset>
                    <article class="js-cart-product">
                        <p class="prod-title">Name:  </p>
                        <p class="pu-date">Pick up date:  </p>
                        <p class="rtn-date">Return Date: </p>
                        <p class="loc">Location: </p>
                        <form action="" method="POST">
                            
                            
                            <div class="buttons">
                                <div class="back">
                                    <button class="primary button" type="submit">Delete Item</button>
                                </div>
                            </div>
                            <!-- <div class="cart__footer">
                                <p class="cart__text">
                                    <a class="button" href="#" title="Buy products">
                                        Check Out
                                    </a>
                                </p>
                            </div> -->
                        </form>
                    </article>
                </fieldset>
                @endforeach
            </div>
        </div>
        @else
        <h3>No items in Cart!</h3>
        <a href=" ">Return to Rental Equipment</a>
        @endif
    </div>
</article>

And here is the create item part of the controller:

public function store(Request $request)
{

    $duplicates = Cart::search(function ($cartItem, $rowId) use ($request) {
        return $cartItem->id === $request->id;
    });
    if ($duplicates->isNotEmpty()) {
        return redirect()->route('cart.index')->with('success_message', 'Item is already in your cart!');
    }

     $this->validate($request, array(
        'location'=>'required',
    ));

    Cart::add($request->id, $request->title, 1, $request->location, $options = ['pickup' => 'pickupDate', 'returnDate' => 'returnDate'])
        ->associate('App\Rental');

    Session::flash('success', 'The item was successfully save!');

    return redirect()->route('cart.index');
}
