Is a lawn service required to be licensed to pay taxes and where can I find the list of those licensed?

I am trying to find out if the lawn services, nannies, maids, cleaning services and such are licensed or registered so that the government can collect their taxes? Where can I verify the companies in my area to make sure that they are paying their taxes or are doing business legally?

I am looking for a link to a site that enables me look up a business to see if it is licensed or registered with my state. I'm in Illinois. I don't see a list of these services in the state list of licensed businesses.

Answer:
Licenses of those nature are usually issued at the county and city levels. Contact Clerk of Courts for your county and see if they are required to hold a business license and if bonds are requisite or not and what criteria the State requires. Oftentimes, the State governs, but the city or county level enforces. Other times the State agency is not involved at all, and counties hold the certificates. In NC, most services that have a 'danger' aspect must have a license, and usually Workman's comp insurance and or liability insurance--which is dictated by the State.
Not a difficult thing to find out. Call Clerks of Court until you find the answers. good luck.
Call local zoning; they can help
Check with your local Chamber of Commerce to find reputable businesses.
Yes they are but enforcement is not. Unless some 1 complains.And there is only a warning? It's a shame we have to be licensed have to be insured they don't. Why has the Gov An cities sold the Citizens out. O i forgot they are the one that hire them.
I had a cleaning service,just retired, I got my DBA (Doing Business As)at the county clerks office,and I paid my taxes
You can look up their businesses name online at the County Clerk's Recorder's Office.
Check with the city or locality in your area. There should be a list or a website where you can go online and pull up who is licensed. All businesses have to have a business license or permit. The nannies may also be regulated by the state as they involve care of an individual or individuals.
