Chelan County Jail, WA

Visiting at Chelan County Jail takes a little planning because the booking windows are narrow. For in-person visits on Wednesdays, you must schedule that same day between 10:00 and 11:00 a.m. Saturday visits need to be booked the Friday before, also between 10:00 and 11:00 a.m. If you'd prefer a video option, the jail lobby has two free computer monitors available. You'll need to complete the jail's on-site registration process before you can schedule or use them. Be aware that video visits are monitored. Showing nudity on camera will cost you your visitation privileges, and repeat incidents may also affect the incarcerated person's video access. In Washington, you must be approved and placed on the person's Approved Visitor List before any visits are allowed.

Chelan County Jail handles video visits through GettingOut. You'll schedule sessions directly in the GettingOut app, and visits are available daily from 8:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. Before using any remote services, you'll need to create and verify a GettingOut account. Appointments are first-come, first-served, and you can't schedule them in person. For appointment questions, call (509) 667-6539. You can also leave a paid voicemail by setting up a GettingOut account, depositing funds, then following the vendor instructions and calling 1-866-516-0115. Keep in mind that video sessions and vendor communications are recorded and monitored, and conduct rules apply. Showing nudity will revoke your visitor privileges, and repeated violations may affect the incarcerated person's video access.

Chelan County Jail processes inmate deposits through TouchPay Holdings, LLC (doing business as GTL Financial Services). Depending on what the jail currently accepts, you may be able to add funds through an online portal or app, by phone, at a lobby kiosk, through retail cash locations, or by mailing a cashier's check or money order. Funds in an inmate's account typically go toward commissary purchases, phone calls, and covering fees or other obligations. If you plan to send funds by mail, don't send cash or personal checks. Stick with a cashier's check or money order, and include any requested notes about the intended sub-account (such as "commissary") when supported.
