Unwanted solicitation in Sublette County

Several people have inquired asking about the laws regarding door-to-door salesmen in Sublette County. Door-to-door peddling is legal outside of the Pinedale Town limits in the County. Citizens can post "No Soliciting" and "No Trespassing" signs on their property to alert uninvited persons they cannot come onto private property without permission. For complaints in the county, contact the Sublette County Sheriff’s Office, 307-367-4378. Inside Town limits, the Town of Pinedale has an ordinance making unwanted door-to-door peddling illegal, punishable as a misdemeanor. Complaints for violation can be directed to the town Municipal enforcement officer, 307-367-4136.

Below is the Town of Pinedale’s ordinance (available to read on the Town’s website):
