Door-to-Door Solicitors
All for-profit door-to-door solicitors, selling products or services, are required to register with the City and must display a Chanhassen solicitor photo ID badge when soliciting in the City.
The following are exempt from having to register with the City and are not required to carry a Chanhassen solicitor photo ID badge:
- Children age 17 or younger, soliciting for school-sponsored activities.
- Religious, charitable, or non-profit organizations.
Door-to-door solicitation hours are between 9 a.m. and 8 p.m.
The solicitor photo ID badge issued by the City of Chanhassen is not an endorsement of the solicitor's product. The objective of the ordinance is to aid the City in managing the activity of door-to-door solicitation.
Recommendations:
- Immediately call 911 to report the following violations:
- A solicitor selling for a profit organization who does not display the Chanhassen solicitor photo ID badge.
- A solicitor refuses to leave property after you have told them to leave.
- Be careful of whom you let in your home.
- Remind your teenage children on how to deal with strangers and rules of safety, as they may answer the door when you're not home.
- If you do not wish to receive solicitors, posting a sign stating "Peddlers and Solicitors Prohibited" is enforceable per the Chanhassen ordinance. The sign must be at least 3 ¾ inches long by 3 ¾ inches in height and the printing shall not be smaller than forty-eight-point type.
