Englewood, CO Soliciting & Door-to-Door: Solicitor Permits (2026)

Commercial door-to-door solicitation in Arapahoe County cities requires a municipal permit. Aurora City Code §98-41 requires each solicitor to submit a completed application with photo ID, consent to background check (CBI and FBI), pay a non-refundable fee ($25 to $100), and carry a visible city-issued ID badge while canvassing. Solicitation permitted 9 AM to 8 PM or sunset, whichever earlier. Centennial Municipal Code §9-16 has similar requirements with a $50 fee and 9 AM to 9 PM window. Littleton Municipal Code §7-8-1 requires registration. Greenwood Village and Cherry Hills Village have stricter rules, with Cherry Hills Village effectively prohibiting most commercial solicitation. Unincorporated Arapahoe County relies on state law (C.R.S. §6-1-301 et seq. Colorado Consumer Protection Act for door-to-door sales) rather than a county permit system. Religious canvassing (Watchtower/Jehovah's Witnesses v. Village of Stratton, 2002) and political canvassing are First Amendment protected and exempt from permit requirements. Charitable solicitors register separately with the Colorado Secretary of State under C.R.S. §6-16-101 (Colorado Charitable Solicitations Act).
