Is it illegal to put flyers up?

Answer 1

Depends on the city or town you are in. They may require a permit. There may be anti-littering laws that are used to prevent it. There may be rules against blocking the sidewalk or soliciting. You would have to check the local ordinance online or at city hall to find out.

Answer 2

Too many things are unknown to answer the question. Define "hand out." Define "flier." Where do you intend to "hand them out?" On the street, or deliver them to people's homes, or distribute them under the wipers of cars in the parking lots? Depending on the local laws of the jurisdiction you are in, any or all of these may MAY require the need for a permit. You must check your local ordnances.

Its all down to the local legal requirements. In the UK placing the flyer on a windscreen in itself is not an offence but the litter they cause is. This is normally a by law produced by the local council
