Big Spring Police Department

If you're looking for the person going door-to-door in Big Spring during the day, it is Robert Bookman Veide, a university student from Estonia participating in a summer exchange program. Robert is in Big Spring this summer, sharing educational books and learning apps designed for children ranging from toddlers to college-prep students.

This is Robert's first week in Big Spring, so if you see him around town, feel free to say hello and welcome him to our community!

Robert has obtained a valid peddler's permit approved by the City of Big Spring and is authorized to conduct door-to-door sales in accordance with city regulations.

As always, residents should feel comfortable asking to see a peddler's permit when approached by any door-to-door salesperson.
