Jackson

Partly read: the permit answer is sourced, but the fee or the hours could not be read from the city’s own pages.

  • Permit: Unclear. The city's former commercial-solicitation permit, § 94-2 , was repealed outright in 2020 ('Ord. No. 2020-26(1), § 1, adopted October 13, 2020, repealed § 94-2, which pertained to commercial solicitation'), and Chapter 94's remaining articles (Transient Peddlers, Transient Vendors) are written around street peddling and short-duration retail operations rather than a rep knocking door-to-door.
  • Fee: For a Transient Vendor License: $250.00 with the application, plus a bond of the lesser of $2,000.00 or 5% of the wholesale value of the merchandise or services offered. 'Each applicant for a transient vendor license shall include a license fee of $250.00 with the application...The applicant shall also execute a cash bond or a surety bond...in an amount that is the lesser of either $2,000.00 or five percent of the wholesale value of any merchandise or service to be offered for sale' (§ 94-82(a)). Renewal is $25.00 (§ 94-83(b)).
  • Hours you may knock: The code sets no clock-time or sunset/sunrise restriction for commercial door-to-door solicitation anywhere in Chapter 94 as currently codified.
  • Checked: 19 September 2026
