hmm I see there are some required fields in the layout. I guess you ahve to use actionRegion to selective submit the page

 

<apex:page standardController="Pickup_Donation__c" extensions="PickupDonationcont" showheader="false" id="page">
    <table style="width: 100%;">
        <tr>
            <td align="center">
                <apex:image height="128" width="1002" url="{!URLFOR($Resource.webheader)}" />
            </td>
        </tr>
    </table>
    <apex:form>
        <apex:pageMessages></apex:pageMessages>
        <apex:pageBlock>
            <apex:pageBlockButtons>
                <apex:commandButton value="Submit" action="{!save}" />
                <apex:commandButton value="cancel" action="{!cancel}" />
            </apex:pageBlockButtons>
            <apex:pageBlockSection title="Personal details" columns="2">
