Posting Bail for Someone at Apache County Jail
Bail for a county inmate is set by a judicial officer, usually at the initial appearance held within 24 hours of arrest. Once the amount is set, our agent confirms where the county accepts the bond (the jail or the court of record), prepares the surety bond and posts it. You sign and pay electronically, so you do not have to travel to the county seat. Release is processed by the jail after the bond is accepted. Apache County is one of the least populated counties in the state, and bond postings are handled through the Sheriff's Office and the Superior Court in St. Johns.

Apache County Jail Questions
How do I bail someone out of Apache County Jail?
Call us with the person's name and date of birth. We confirm custody and the bail amount, you sign electronically and pay the premium, and our agent posts the bond. You do not need to come to St. Johns.

Can I visit someone at Apache County Jail?
Visitation rules are set by the facility and change often. Check the official website or call the facility before going. Getting the person released on bond is usually faster than arranging a visit.
Do you serve Apache County from Phoenix?
Yes. We arrange bonds at every Arizona county jail. For Apache County the bond is posted by a licensed agent in that county or as a transfer bond, at the same filed premium rate.
Where do you post bail in Phoenix?
Bonds for anyone in Maricopa County custody are posted in person at the 4th Avenue Jail Bond and Fine Room, 201 S 4th Avenue, Phoenix, at the northwest corner of the building. The county does not accept bonds electronically. Our agent handles the posting so you do not have to.
How long after posting bail is someone released from Maricopa County jail?
The Maricopa County Sheriff's Office states that release processing can take up to 24 hours after a bond is posted. In practice, release from the 4th Avenue Jail often takes two to eight hours, and releases from the Durango complex jails (Lower Buckeye, Estrella, Towers, Watkins) can take longer because the release order must reach that facility. Weekend nights and holidays are slowest.
