SLCRO §804.040 requires every solicitor or peddler in unincorporated St. Louis County to obtain a license from the Department of Revenue before any door-to-door activity. Licenses must be displayed on request and solicitors must leave any premises when asked.
Chapter 804 (Solicitors and Peddlers License Required) operates alongside §716.150 (Trespassing). Residents may post a no-solicitation sign — solicitors must obey if the sign is conspicuous, sufficiently sized, and properly placed. Subdivisions may collectively post 'no solicitors' signage to bar entry to the entire subdivision. Tax-exempt organizations (charities, religious groups) face a different application track but most licensing requirements still apply.
Cite as trespass under §716.150; up to $1,000 fine; license revocation.
