TEAMS WANTED In Des Moines the opening is for teams: if you run a door-to-door crew, or have two or more people ready to knock with you, RCLX can seek territory here for your team. Territory isn't guaranteed — it depends on RCLX and on where T-Mobile fiber is built. Everyone on the team, you included, is placed on their own commission; there is no team override on paper yet. Solo reps: apply anyway — we keep your application and reach out when Des Moines opens to solo reps.

Iowa's capital covers 88.2 square miles, and the city recognizes 46 neighborhood associations, among them Beaverdale, Waveland Park, Union Park and Sherman Hill, so a crew lead can plan by neighborhood instead of by ZIP code. The ACS 2020–2024 estimates 61.6 percent of homes are single-family detached and 9.2 percent were built in 2010 or later. City code bars peddling from 9 p.m. to 9 a.m. and at any property posted against peddling or soliciting.

Is T-Mobile Fiber available in Des Moines?
T-Mobile's own fiber availability page lists Des Moines among its Iowa cities (checked September 30, 2026), and T-Mobile's Des Moines city page offers 300 Mbps, 1 Gig and 2 Gig plans, each marked "Not available in all areas." The page also says speed tiers vary by location and that pricing may vary by verified service address. Des Moines covers 88.2 square miles and the city recognizes 46 neighborhood associations, so a listing for the city name settles nothing for a single block: availability is confirmed address by address with T-Mobile's own checker. Ask your sales organization which Des Moines neighborhoods a crew is assigned before planning a route.
Do I need a license to sell door to door in Des Moines?
Yes. Des Moines Municipal Code Chapter 78, Article II, defines a peddler as anyone who sells or takes orders "house to house" for goods, merchandise or services. Section 78-27 requires a peddlers license from the city clerk and a cash bond of at least $200 per license. Section 78-29 asks for photo ID, a criminal history report dated within 30 days and an Iowa sales tax permit number or a Department of Revenue letter, and section 78-30 sets a wait of at least three business days and a fee from the council's schedule. Licenses run a week, a month or three months. Peddling is barred from 9 p.m. to 9 a.m. and at any property posted against peddling or soliciting, and a copy of the license must be left with each prospect. As a 1099 independent contractor, compliance is yours.
What is the weather like for door-to-door work in Des Moines?
NOAA's 1991–2020 climate normals for Des Moines International Airport show an average January high of 30.9 degrees and an average low of 13.8, and an average July high of 85.6 with a low of 66.4. A normal year brings about 36.5 inches of snow, most of it from December through February, and May and June are the wettest months at a little over 5 inches of precipitation each. Des Moines allows licensed peddling from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. in every season, so the limit on a winter crew day is the cold rather than the clock: the average January high is below freezing.
Which nearby towns pair with Des Moines on a route?
Ankeny is listed by name on T-Mobile's Iowa fiber availability page (checked September 30, 2026) and has its own T-Mobile city page. Measured between the Census Bureau's center points, Ankeny is about 11 miles from Des Moines, straight line. The two cities license separately: Des Moines issues a peddlers license through its city clerk with a cash bond, and Ankeny's Chapter 132 requires its own license for each person and limits hours to 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday through Saturday, excluding national holidays. A crew that crosses the line needs paperwork in each city. Ask your sales organization which towns a crew covers, and confirm availability address by address.
