Do Not Knock Registry

Do Not Knock Registry

The Town of Bolton, MA Police Department is compiling a Do Not Knock Registry which will allow residents to submit their information to the Police Department for inclusion on the Registry. The Registry list will be provided to all individuals and companies who are issued a solicitation permit through the Police Department. Each solicitation permit recipient will be advised there shall be no soliciting at any of the locations identified by the Registry. This is effective July 1, 2023.

 

Residents may add their name to the Registry by completing our online application below or by obtaining a paper copy at the Police Station, Town Hall or Transfer Station.   Paper copies can be: 

  • Dropped off at the Public Safety Building
  • Emailed to DNKR@bolton-ma.gov
  • Telephone calls will not be accepted
  • Once you are registered on the "Do Not Knock" registry, contact us immediately at 978-779-2276 if you are visited by a solicitor.  Speak with the on duty dispatcher to have an officer investigate.  Emergency situations dial 911.

*NOTE* Members of religious, political, or political action groups are exempt from this restriction.  Other exemptions: children 14 years old or younger under the supervision of an adult, Bolton youth groups, or NRHS groups.
