Loudoun County Zoning Ordinance limits customer traffic for home occupations to preserve residential character. Typical conditions include: no more than 2-4 customers or clients per day, appointments-only rather than walk-in traffic, no simultaneous large gatherings, and no commercial delivery vehicles over standard size.

Businesses with higher traffic volume (salons, tutoring centers, fitness instruction) may require special exception from the Board of Zoning Appeals or may need to relocate to a commercially zoned property.
Excessive customer traffic: warning then $100-$500 per incident. Persistent zoning violation: $250/day and permit revocation. May require relocation of business.
