Pasadena residents may post 'No Soliciting' signs to deter unwanted door-to-door solicitation. Solicitors who ignore posted signs may be subject to citation. Business license regulations under PMC Title 5 govern solicitor conduct.
Pasadena offers a no-knock or no-soliciting registry allowing residents to opt out of door-to-door sales visits. Registered addresses are added to a list provided to all permitted solicitors. Solicitors who knowingly visit a registered address or ignore a posted no-soliciting sign face citations. Residents can register online, by phone, or at city hall. The registry does not apply to political, religious, or nonprofit canvassers, which are protected speech.
Ignoring no-soliciting sign: $50 to $250. Visiting registered address: $100 to $500. Repeated violations may result in permit revocation.
