Call 379-7625 to report door-to-door solicitors!

The Board of Commissioners recently finalized the Ordinance banning commercial door-to-door Solicitors. Religious and non-profit organizations may still solicit with a City of Lakeland permit and of course, political campaigning is authorized without any type of permit.

The Shelby County Sheriff Department will assist residents who are contacted by door-to-door solicitors. Lakeland residents who suspect violations should contact the Shelby County Sheriff at 379-7625 to report violations.

Copies of the ordinance have been distributed to Deputies to expedite enforcement.
