How to deposit funds, commissary, and payment options
Posting bond at Glynn County Detention Center means budgeting for extra fees. The facility charges a $20 bond-posting fee per bond. Property bonds come with additional paperwork costs: the bonding information shows $25 per property lien at signing and another $25 per lien to cancel it once the case wraps up. However, a separate Sheriff's fee schedule lists a $5 property lien fee at signing—so confirm the correct amount with the facility or Clerk before you sign anything. If the defendant doesn't show up for court, you're on the hook for the full bond amount plus court costs. The Sheriff's Office can seize and auction property to cover the debt. Want off a surety agreement early? You'll need to physically return the defendant to GCDC and file lien-cancellation paperwork with the Clerk.
