what is a no knock list
The city list, then the pin
What is a no knock list is a city registry of addresses commercial solicitors must skip. Knockdesk is field sales software that does not download that city file. You read the registry, then mark Do Not Contact on the pin so the next turf loop does not treat the porch as Unvisited. This page is general information, not legal advice.

|---|---|
| Definition | A city file of addresses to skip. There is no national download. |
| City registry | The clerk page you open before the loop. Names vary by city. |
| Do Not Contact pin | The mark on the household in Knockdesk so the pack will not send the next knock. |
| Posted sign | A No Soliciting notice at the door, even when the address is not on the registry. |
The city
A paper list in the van is not a skip on the turf
You feel it when the clerk PDF lives in the glovebox and Harbor still shows Unvisited on listed houses. What is a no knock list is the city file. The skip the crew can trust is the Do Not Contact pin. Knockdesk does not import city registries. A sign at the door still needs a mark, even when the address was never on the list. This page is general information, not legal advice.
Registry
Open the city page for the city you are walking. There is no national no-knock file.
Sign
A posted No Soliciting notice is separate from the registry. Still skip, then mark the pin.
Pin
Mark Do Not Contact, or complete an outcome that marks the pin that way.
Eighteen addresses
A city list of 18, two signs, twenty pins that should not get a knock
Dock loop holds 160 pins. The city registry lists 18 of those addresses. Maya marks those 18 as Do Not Contact. Two more houses are not on the list and have a posted sign. She marks those 2 as well. DNC on the turf is 20. If the PDF stays in the van, 18 still read Unvisited and the next loop knocks them. Recompute the skip from the pin. This page is general information, not legal advice.
| Source | Count | On the turf |
|---|---|---|
| Pins on Dock loop | 160 | The pack Maya holds |
| City registry matches | 18 | Skip, then mark Do Not Contact |
| Posted signs, not on the list | 2 | Skip, then mark Do Not Contact |
| DNC pins after the walk | 20 | The next loop can leave them |
| If the PDF never left the van | 18 still Unvisited | The next knock hits a listed porch |

City registry first, then the Do Not Contact pin

Frequently asked questions
What is a no knock list?
A no knock list is a city registry of addresses commercial solicitors must skip. There is no national download. This is general information, not legal advice.
Does Knockdesk import the city file?
No. Open the city registry, then mark Do Not Contact on the pin so the next loop does not treat the house as Unvisited.
How is a no knock list different from Do Not Contact?
The no knock list belongs to the city. Do Not Contact is the pin mark in Knockdesk. The list does not skip the porch until that pin is marked.

A posted sign is separate from the registry. Skip that house and mark Do Not Contact even when the address was never on the city list. This is general information, not legal advice.
What if the paper list stays in the van?
