Is door to door solicitation allowed in Riverside?

Village Ordinance requires anyone soliciting in neighborhoods to obtain a permit from the Village office during regular business hours. Solicitors must follow the ordinance and respect requests to leave the property. For those interested in soliciting, fill out an application at the Village Office along with the $50 application fee and a valid form of government identification. Some exemptions are religious and charitable organizations.


Residents do not have to answer or open the door to solicitors. Do not let anyone into your house and do not give out personal information about yourself or your neighbors. If a solicitor refuses to leave, call 9-1-1.
