Fortunately, the contract for the sale of a used car, often called a Bill of Sale, is a relatively simple document to create on your own. Edit StepsContract Help
Sample Used Car Sale Contract

Sample Bill of Sale Disclosure Addendum
2Provide a description of the vehicle. The contract should be written such that it is clear to all who read it exactly what the contract is for. In the case of the sale of a car, use as many identifying characteristics of the car as possible. For example, if the contract only identifies the model and year of the car, for example, “1990 Toyota Camry,” and the owner has two 1990 Toyota Camry’s, it would be unclear which of the two cars the contract is for.
Include the VIN number, color, year, make, model, interior color, and any other unique features of the car. For example, “The vehicle is a silver 1995 Honda Civic LX with black leather interior and a sunroof. The VIN number is 123456789 and the odometer reads 167,000 as of March 14, 2011.”3State the date of the sale and the purchase price. Include the type of payment that will be made (cash, cashiers check, money order, etc.). For example, “The date of sale is March 14, 2011. Buyer agrees to pay to Seller the purchase price of $500 to be paid in cash only.”
4Include a statement about the condition of the vehicle. Typically, in the sale of a used car, the vehicle is sold “as is,” which limits the seller’s liability for any problems with the car’s condition. A statement that the car is sold “as is” and that the owner “makes no warranties about the condition of the car” is sufficient.
5Explain what document the Seller will provide to the Buyer. State that the Seller will provide the Buyer with the vehicle’s title and any other required documents, such as a recent smog test report, or other inspection. Check with your state’s DMV regarding any other documentation the seller must provide to the buyer.
6Sign and date the contract. Each party should sign and date the contract. A witness should also sign the contract after each party has signed the contract. After the contract is signed, make a copy of the contract. One party should retain the original and one party should retain a copy. It does not matter who retains the copy versus the original.

2Choose a suitable container for storage. The best storage containers are glass or plastic. Blueberries react with metal and each causes the other to discolor.[2] If baking with blueberries, line a metal pan first.
If freezing blueberries, be aware that they expand when frozen, so the container should be slightly larger to accommodate the expansion.Store Fresh Berries to Eat within 5 Days1Pour the blueberries into a strainer or colander.
2Wash the blueberries under water. Shake the colander to remove the water.
3Take a food storage container and lay a paper towel down at the bottom of it.
4Add the blueberries on top of the paper towel in the box. Store in the fridge.
Store Fresh Berries for Over 5 Days1Refrain from washing the berries, as this will cause them to deteriorate.
2Store in a sealed plastic or glass container in a refrigerator. Cover. Blueberries should last 2 weeks in this condition if they are freshly picked.[3]
Freeze Blueberries1Read how to freeze blueberries for more details. For a brief overview:
Refrain from washing the blueberries prior to freezing. While the difference may be imperceptible, washing can result in a slightly tougher skin once the berry thaws.Place the berries on a pan in a single layer.Place in freezer overnight.Place the berries in a vacuum bag or a Ziploc type bag and remove excess air. The more air you can remove the less freezer burn the blueberries will have.2Freeze the blueberries for up to one year. Cook while still frozen to retain their flavor.[4]
