How to deposit funds, commissary, and payment options
Sending money to someone at Huron County Jail typically goes through approved third-party options: an online portal, phone payment system, or lobby kiosk. You won't hand cash directly to staff. Before depositing, have the inmate's full name and booking/ID number ready. Confirm the facility's approved deposit vendors so your money reaches the right account. Expect convenience or processing fees on phone, online, and kiosk deposits—these vary by vendor, not the jail. For sheriff-related financial business like property sales, the Huron County Civil Office handles county financial functions. Sheriff-sale bidding requires Realauction registration and an online deposit with set tiers. Deposits may be forfeited if the purchaser doesn't pay the remaining balance.
