Morrow County Jail Visitation Hours & Weekly Time Allowance (what we can confirm)
Planning a visit to Morrow County Jail? The written policy spells out daily visitation windows clearly enough—but it contradicts itself on weekly time limits. Here's what the policy actually says and how to work around the confusion.
According to Morrow County Jail's policy, visitation is available seven days a week during three windows: 8:00 AM–11:00 AM, 1:00 PM–2:00 PM, and 6:00 PM–8:00 PM. These are the posted time ranges to work with when picking a day.
- ✓ Make an appointment before you go by scheduling online or using the lobby visitation kiosk.
- ✓ Bring valid, government-issued photo ID.
- ✓ Plan your group size around the stated limit: 1 adult and 2 children, or 2 adults and 1 child, or 3 adults.
- ✓ Assume your visit will be monitored and may be recorded for safety and security reasons.
- ✓ Follow the listed clothing rules: no tank tops, tube tops, or muscle shirts; no bare midriffs; shoes and shirts must be worn.
One part of the jail's written policy states that visitation hours are designed to give inmates thirty minutes of visitation per week. That reads like a 30-minute weekly cap.
But in the same section, another line says inmates will be permitted 2 hours a week in 30-minute blocks (unless circumstances require a temporary suspension). That directly contradicts the 30-minute statement - and both appear in the official policy.
Heads up: The official policy lists two different weekly limits - 30 minutes per week in one place, 2 hours per week (in 30-minute blocks) in another. Call ahead to confirm which limit is actually being enforced before you schedule.
- Pick a visit window that works for you - the policy lists daily windows of 8:00 AM–11:00 AM, 1:00 PM–2:00 PM, and 6:00 PM–8:00 PM, seven days a week.
- Schedule the visit (don’t just show up) - the policy says you must make an appointment by scheduling online or at the lobby visitation kiosk.
- Treat 30 minutes as the “safe” planning assumption - because the policy also says visits are intended to provide thirty minutes of visitation per week, plan as if you may only get one 30-minute block.
- Ask directly about weekly limits when you book - since the policy also mentions up to 2 hours per week in 30-minute blocks, confirm how many 30-minute blocks are allowed and how the weekly total is counted.
Verify at scheduling: When you book your appointment (online or at the lobby kiosk), ask whether the jail is enforcing 30 minutes per week or allowing up to 2 hours per week - and how many 30-minute blocks you can reserve.
- ✓ Bring valid, government-issued photo ID.
- ✓ Keep your visitor count within the stated limit (1 adult + 2 children, or 2 adults + 1 child, or 3 adults).
- ✓ Expect visits to be monitored and possibly recorded.
- ✓ Dress to the policy: no tank tops, tube tops, or muscle shirts; no bare midriffs; shoes and shirts must be worn.
