How do you find out the visiting hours for the county jail?

Call the sheriff's office or visit the county sheriff's website to find out the visiting hours for the local county jail. Occasionally, the website of the county sheriff's office is a page on the county's website.

The county sheriff's website often provides specific directions for prospective visitors, including the number of weekly visits each inmate may have, a dress code for visitors, visiting hours and visiting options, such as on- or off-site video visits.

Most county sheriff's offices require visitors to register before visiting an inmate, as of 2015. Others only accept requests for a visit over the phone; the number to call may appear on the website of the sheriff's office.
