Illinois has no statewide no-knock law, so protection comes from local ordinance or a resident's own posting. Across the Peoria area, a clearly posted No Soliciting sign is generally enforceable against a licensed commercial solicitor.
Illinois has no statewide no-knock law, so protection comes from local ordinance or a resident's own posting. Across the Peoria area, a clearly posted "No Soliciting" sign is generally enforceable: a licensed commercial solicitor who ignores it can be cited under the local peddler ordinance. Permitted soliciting hours are also capped, commonly ending in the early evening. Some municipalities keep a do-not-knock list that registered sellers must honor. These protections bind commercial solicitors only; charitable, religious, and political canvassers keep their constitutional right to knock regardless of a sign or registry. Report violations to local police or code enforcement.
A commercial solicitor who ignores a posted no-soliciting sign, canvasses off-hours, or knocks at a registered address faces an ordinance citation and possible revocation of the local peddler license.
