Euless requires door-to-door commercial solicitors to obtain a permit from the Police Department, including ID, background check, and fee. Religious and political canvassing is First Amendment protected.
Euless regulates door-to-door commercial solicitation through a permit and registration system administered by the Euless Police Department. Any person engaged in commercial peddling, canvassing, or direct sales at residential properties, including magazine sales, alarm system sales, pest control solicitation, roofing and construction bids, energy contract sales, and product demonstrations, must obtain a solicitor permit before going door-to-door. Application requirements typically include valid government-issued identification, a recent photograph, a description of the products or services being offered, employer information, the dates and areas to be worked, and submission to a criminal background check. Applicants with disqualifying criminal histories may be denied a permit. Permit fees vary and are typically charged per solicitor and per period. Permits must be carried at all times during solicitation and produced on request. Solicitation hours are typically limited to 9 AM to 8 PM or sunset, whichever is earlier, and solicitors must honor No Soliciting signs posted at individual homes. Religious, political, educational, and nonprofit charitable solicitation are generally protected under First Amendment jurisprudence including Watchtower Bible v. Stratton and may not be subjected to permit prerequisites for pure speech, though time-place-manner rules still apply. Residents can report unpermitted commercial solicitation to Euless Police non-emergency number 817-685-1526. Persistent violators can face citation and criminal trespass charges for returning to properties where they've been told to leave.
