For the purposes of this chapter, the following definitions shall apply and form a party of this chapter:

ITINERANT MERCHANTS, TRANSIENT VENDORS: Any person, either as principal or agent, who engages in the business of traveling about carrying with him for sale and selling manufactured goods, wares, or merchandise.

PEDDLER, HUCKSTER OR HAWKER: One who travels from place to place carrying his wares with him. A peddler offers for sale, consummates the sale and delivers the goods or services at one and the same time to the ultimate consumer.

SOLICITOR, CANVASSER OR DRUMMER: One who also travels from place to place but is distinguished from a peddler in that he does not carry his wares with him. A solicitor generally will carry samples and take orders for future delivery of the merchandise.

TRANSIENT OR ITINERANT MERCHANT, SELLER, OR VENDOR: A person who sells and delivers from a stock in much the same way as a permanent business. However, this type of vendor generally sets up temporary shop in a building, tent or trailer. (Ord. 14, Series 1982)
