Outlines any warranties provided by the seller or the disclaimer of any warranties ("as-is" clause). This section protects the seller against future claims by the buyer and informs the buyer of their rights.
Sellers typically confirm that they are the legal owner of the item and that it is free from liens or claims. Confirms the seller's right to sell the property and the buyer's acceptance of the item's condition.

Transferring restaurant assets in California requires more than a simple receipt; it demands a robust Bill of Sale that addresses the unique regulatory landscape of the Golden State. Whether you are selling a high-volume POS system, commercial refrigerators, or front-of-house furniture, our document ensures compliance with Cal. Civ. Code § 1624 (Statute of Frauds) for sales over $500. By formalizing the transfer, you mitigate risks related to foodborne illness liability and health code violations by clearly defining the 'as-is' condition and transferring ownership of service history. Our template specifically considers California-specific nuances such as CCPA data privacy for stored customer information on hardware and the impact of AB5 on any service contracts tied to the equipment.
Under Cal. Civ. Code § 1624, also known as the Statute of Frauds, any sale of goods exceeding $500 must be documented in writing to be legally enforceable. For restaurant owners selling expensive kitchen lines or refrigeration units, a formal Bill of Sale is the primary defense against disputes regarding the purchase price or terms of the transfer.
While a Bill of Sale typically includes an 'as-is' disclaimer (Warranties and Disclaimers clause), California law requires honesty regarding the condition of the asset. Providing maintenance records helps mitigate future foodborne illness liability and ensures the buyer can meet State and Local Health Code standards upon installation.
No. While the Bill of Sale covers the physical assets like bars and taps, the transfer of a liquor license is regulated by the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) under the Federal Alcohol Administration Act. This document should be used in conjunction with ABC Form 211-A for license transfers.
In accordance with the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), sellers must ensure that all 'Personal Information' is either wiped or legally transferred. Your Bill of Sale should include a buyer's acknowledgment regarding the data security of the POS system to prevent employment-related claims or privacy breaches.
