A Court Appointed Gas Station Receiver Is Here to Help

Here’s how a FedReceiver Gas Station Receiver can help you:

Gas station properties, which may also contain C-Stores and Carwashes are heavily regulated. Alcohol licensing issues may be present; complex rules exist with respect to the transfer of liquor licenses.

  • Regulatory Compliance

    Due to the inherent environmental and regulatory risks associated with gas station properties, it is important to have the requisite experience to understand the types of issues that may arise. This includes underground storage tanks, air quality, point-of-sale software, subsurface contamination, groundwater, soil vapor contamination and other hazards common in this property type.

  • Liquor Licenses

    The operation and transfer of liquor licenses can be complex. Strict adherence to rules governing liquor licenses is required to maintain, preserve and transfer such licenses.

  • Carwash Facilities

    Carwash facilities require stringent management procedures. From recycled water to the use of specialized detergents and other regulatory complaints issues, these businesses require hands-on management and expertise.

  • Point of Sale Software

    Retail point-of-sale systems are heavily regulated. Compliance with such requirements including inventory management is required.

  • Underground Storage Tank Compliance

    Underground storage tank inspection, maintenance and compliance issues arise in the management of carwash properties.

  • Franchise/License Agreements

    Compliance with franchise agreements will preserve the value of the property and business.

  • Cash Receipts

    Tracking cash in implementing appropriate checks and balances is of vital importance in the operation of carwash, convenience store and gas station businesses and properties.

  • Environmental Compliance

    Overall environmental compliance issues are at the forefront of these types of properties.

  • Inventory Control

    Inventory control can prevent theft, enhance profits and improve efficiency.

  • Vendor Relations

    Maintaining good relations with vendors is important. This will allow for good terms as well as service.

When is a gas station receiver needed?
