Transfer Bail Bonds in Polk County
When someone is being moved between facilities or counties, timing matters. We move just as fast to get the bond posted.
Why a Facility Transfer Complicates Things
Polk County books most arrests at the Sheriff's Processing Center, then houses people at Central County Jail or South County Jail. A transfer between these, or a move to a different county entirely, can make it harder to confirm exactly where someone is and whether bail has been set yet.
The sooner we know a transfer is happening, the sooner we can start working the bond so release is not delayed any longer than it has to be.
What to Do If You Think a Transfer Is Happening
Call us with whatever information you have: the person's name, the facility you last confirmed them at, and the charge if you know it. We will check current status and tell you the fastest way to get the bond moving, whether that means posting now or waiting for the transfer to finish.
Estimate a Transfer Bail Bond
Use this calculator for a quick starting number once bail has been set. Call us for the real bail amount and an exact price.
Florida sets a $100 minimum fee, so any bail amount under $1,000 will still show $100 below. At that minimum, the fee is due in full, with no payment plan.

Transfer Bond Questions
What is a transfer bond?
It is the bail process for someone who is being, or about to be, moved from one facility or county to another while their case is still pending, rather than someone who has just been arrested.
Why does the facility change matter?
Once a transfer happens, it can take longer to confirm where someone actually is, which slows down posting bail. Acting before or right as a transfer happens helps avoid that delay.
Can you post bail before a transfer is completed?
Sometimes, if bail has already been set at the original facility. Call us with where the person currently is and we will tell you the fastest path.
What if the person has already been moved and I can't find them?
Call us or use our inmate search page. We check facility by facility and can usually track down where someone has been moved to.
Do you offer payment plans for transfer bonds?
Yes. See our bail financing page for how payment plans work if you would rather not pay the 10% fee all at once.
