Cochrane Reminds Residents of Door-to-Door Sales Licence Requirement
The Town of Cochrane has issued a reminder regarding the legal requirements for door-to-door sales activities within the community. Businesses from outside the area have been reported conducting sales without the necessary pedlar’s licence.
Residents are advised to verify the presence of a valid pedlar’s licence when approached by door-to-door sales representatives. Licensed sellers are required to carry and display their permits upon request. This measure is intended to protect residents from potential scams and ensure that sales agents meet local standards.
The municipal office encourages residents to report any suspicious activities involving sales representatives who cannot provide a licence. Reports can be made by contacting the municipal office at (705) 272-4361.
Additionally, any individuals claiming to be affiliated with the Cochrane Fire Department and offering "free fire blankets" should be reported immediately.
This notice aims to maintain community safety and ensure compliance with local regulations.
