How to Send Money to Someone at Del Norte County Jail (online, phone, or lobby kiosk)

Del Norte County Jail offers three ways to add money to an inmate's account: online through Access Corrections, by phone, or at the lobby kiosk. Pick whichever works best for you. Online is usually fastest if you're comfortable with it. The phone line works if the website acts up. And the kiosk is convenient if you're already heading to the jail.

Online deposits go through the Access Corrections portal. Before you start, grab the inmate's name and booking number - you'll need both to make sure the money lands in the right account.

Prefer not to use the website? Call 866-394-0490 to make a deposit over the phone. Have the inmate's name and booking number ready before you dial - it'll save you time.

There's also a kiosk in the jail lobby for in-person deposits. If you need directions or want to confirm what to bring, contact the Del Norte County Sheriff's Office at (707) 464-4191. The jail is located at 650 Fifth Street, Crescent City, CA 95531.

• ✓ Confirm which deposit option you’re using (Access Corrections online, phone deposit, or the lobby kiosk) before you start.
• ✓ Check for any fees tied to the method you choose before you submit your payment.
• ✓ Make sure you understand what payment types are accepted for that channel (online vs. phone vs. kiosk).
• ✓ Ask about processing times so you know when the funds should show up on the inmate’s account.
• ✓ If something isn’t clear, call for help before you send money - especially if you’re switching from online to phone because the portal is having issues.
