Before Your First Visit: A Complete Checklist for Maury County Jail
Your first visit goes smoother when you show up with the right ID, dressed within the rules, and everything you can't bring already left in the car. Use this checklist to avoid getting turned away at the door.
Bring a valid form of identification with you - visitor ID is required at Maury County Jail. When you arrive, you’ll need to sign in and tell staff who you’re there to visit, so have the inmate’s name ready. After your visit ends, you also have to sign out before you leave.
Plan your outfit around the jail's dress code. Pants work, and so do knee-length shorts, skirts, or dresses. Skip short shorts, cut-offs, spandex, tank tops, halter tops, and anything with holes. Tops that expose cleavage aren't allowed either. Wear the wrong thing, and you'll be turned away.
