Pierce County Jail

Visiting at Pierce County Jail requires some planning. Inmates must schedule their own in-person visits and can book up to seven days in advance. There's no same-day visitor sign-up. Visits last one hour, and onsite sign-in opens 45 minutes before your session and closes 15 minutes before. Arrive early. Late or unappointed visitors will be turned away. Bring an approved photo ID: a valid driver's license, state ID, or another official photo ID with a description and signature. The jail limits visits to two adults per inmate, and minors must follow child-accompaniment rules. All visitors are screened for outstanding warrants and no-contact orders, and you can be arrested upon arrival. At the Nollmeyer Lane location, visiting windows rotate by odd/even days by tier.

Pierce County Jail uses Securus Technologies for remote video visits and phone services. To set up remote video visits (and make deposits), you'll need a Securus account verified with a photo ID and an email address or phone number. Register at www.videovisitanywhere.com. Video visits run 8:00 AM to 9:30 PM, seven days a week including holidays. You're limited to three visits per week. On-site kiosk visits allow up to three people. Remote visits have no participant limit, but whoever schedules must stay present throughout. All sessions are monitored and recorded. Rule violations can end your visit and lead to suspension. Prohibited conduct includes nudity, sexual behavior, driving while on camera, displaying weapons or drugs, gang signs, recording the session, or wearing sexually suggestive clothing.
