Anyone can post bond - you don't have to be a family member. Payment can be made in cash or through a bondsman. Not sure which option fits your situation? Call the Branch Jail first to clarify what you'll need to bring and what steps to take when you arrive.

This rule catches families off guard because the Booking Office stays open 24/7. You can handle bond questions or paperwork late at night, but the actual release won't happen between 10:00 PM and 6:00 AM unless someone is there to pick up the inmate. Want to avoid a long overnight wait? Plan ahead - know who can be on site and ready to transport, and factor that into when you post bond.

Practical Steps for Families

• ✓ Decide whether you’re posting bond with cash or using a bondsman
• ✓ Call the Branch Jail at (386) 254-1555 before you head over to confirm current procedures with the Booking Office

1. Plan for the 10:00 PM–6:00 AM restriction - If release may happen overnight, arrange for a responsible party to be on site to transport the person being released and to check in with Control before release.
2. Aim for daytime release when you can - If you have flexibility, try to time things so release is more likely to occur outside the overnight window.
3. Confirm details with Booking - The Booking Office is open 24/7, so you can call to confirm what will happen when you arrive and reduce surprises.
