Solicitor's Permit

No person shall engage in solicitation in the Town of Erie without first obtaining a solicitation permit.

Solicitation in Erie

  • Each permittee shall carry the solicitation permit and personal identification at all times while engaging in solicitation, and shall present identification and the permit upon request of any person.
  • Solicitation at any property in which a “No Trespassing” or “No Solicitors” (or other similar message indicating that door-to-door sales are not authorized) is in violation of Chapter 1 of Title 4 of the Erie Municipal Code. 
  • Solicitation is prohibited before 8:00 a.m. or after the latter, 8:00 p.m. or sunset.
  • Door hangers, notices, posters, or other advertising or promotional material without permission from owners or occupants of property is prohibited if a fence, gate, or other permanent structure restricts access to personal and/or private property, or if a “no trespassing” or “no solicitors” sign is posted.

Obtain a Solicitor’s Permit

Background checks and fees apply. Fees are non-refundable if a background check fails. Please expect two weeks for the issuance of a permit.

  • In-person appointments are available on Wednesdays between 1-3 p.m.
  • Applications may be requested via email. The background check will need notarized and then brought in-person.
