Residents should be aware that solicitors, with the exception of charitable and political organizations, are required to register with the Township. Residents who do not wish to receive solicitors are encouraged to post a clearly visible “No Solicitors” or “No Trespassing” sign at their residence. Solicitors who ignore such notices or otherwise act suspiciously may be reported to the Police Department by calling 412-833-7500.
Registered solicitors are issued a Township identification badge displaying the solicitor’s photograph and the current registration year. Residents are encouraged to ask to see this badge and should contact the Police Department if a solicitor cannot produce valid identification. Residents should also report solicitors who behave in an aggressive, demanding, or otherwise inappropriate manner. The Township of Upper St. Clair does not endorse or recommend any solicitor, and residents are encouraged to use caution and good judgment when interacting with individuals conducting door-to-door solicitation.
