Crescent City / Del Norte County jail
Search the Sheriff CitizenRIMS currently-incarcerated list or California VINE, or call (707) 464-4191, then use this guide for 650 Fifth Street visiting, Access Corrections deposits, and court at 450 H Street. Pelican Bay (P.O. Box 7500) and Alder Camp (P.O. Box 906) are CDCR — not this jail.

Sheriff CitizenRIMS currently incarcerated list
Official Sheriff homepage (checked 2026-09-12) links the Sheriff’s Public Information Portal at delnorte.citizenrims.com for a list of currently incarcerated persons, wanted persons, call/arrest logs, and public bulletins. California VINE is also linked from that page (vinelink.vineapps.com/search/CA/Person, 1-877-411-5588). You can call the jail (707) 464-4191. Jail411 does not host inmate names. CIRIS is the CDCR state-prison locator — it will not find someone in this county jail. Pelican Bay and Alder Camp are CDCR. The facility inventory still lists an older OIS URL (http://ois.dnco.org/Default); that host did not respond when fetched 2026-09-12 — use CitizenRIMS as the Sheriff-published list.

Three things to confirm before the trip.
The Sheriff Jail page checked 2026-09-12 does not publish day-and-hour visiting windows. Confirm the person is still here on CitizenRIMS or by calling (707) 464-4191, then go to 650 Fifth Street — not 450 H Street (courthouse), not 981 H Street (county admin), not Pelican Bay, not 1115 Williams Drive (Youth Opportunity Center).
- 01Confirm custody
Search CitizenRIMS or VINE, or call (707) 464-4191.
Official Sheriff Public Information Portal: currently incarcerated persons at delnorte.citizenrims.com. VINE is vinelink.vineapps.com/search/CA/Person. CIRIS is CDCR only. Ask staff which door to use for visiting — Civil Office at the same 650 Fifth Street building is process service, not visiting.

Call (707) 464-4191 before you drive. Sheriff Garrett Scott; 650 Fifth Street, Crescent City, CA 95531; fax (707) 464-6527. Do not use Pelican Bay CDCR visiting, Alder Camp fire-camp visiting, or Humboldt Juvenile Hall youth visiting for someone in this county jail.

Llamadas
Del Norte County Jail phone calls vendor not named on the Jail page.
The official Jail page checked 2026-09-12 does not name an inmate-telephone vendor, a friends-and-family login URL, call hours, or per-minute rates. Inmates typically must call out; staff will not take personal messages unless the jail tells you otherwise. Call (707) 464-4191 and ask which carrier this jail uses before you open an account. Do not open a CDCR tablet/phone account for someone in this county jail.
- 01No vendor named
Ask (707) 464-4191 which carrier to use.
The live Jail page is money-only (Access Corrections). A phone login is not published there. Remove collect-call blocks if staff say the person will call collect.
- 02Not CDCR phones
Pelican Bay and Alder Camp use CDCR calling.
If the person is at Pelican Bay or Alder Camp, this jail’s Access Corrections deposit is the wrong vendor. Confirm on CitizenRIMS (county jail) or CIRIS (CDCR).
- 03Video
No remote video URL published.
Ask the jail whether in-person visiting or any video option is available for that housing unit.
Inmate mail
Del Norte County Jail inmate mail address.

Mailing address
Do not send ordinary county-jail mail to Pelican Bay P.O. Box 7500, Alder Camp P.O. Box 906, 450 H Street, 981 H Street, or 1115 Williams Drive. Youth in contracted Humboldt or Shasta detention do not use this jail’s mail.
- Ask (707) 464-4191 for the current envelope format before you mail — the Jail page checked 2026-09-12 does not publish mail rules
- Pelican Bay institution mail (P.O. Box 7500, Crescent City, CA 95532) — CDCR, not this jail
- Pelican Bay staff mail (P.O. Box 7000, Crescent City, CA 95531-7000)
- Alder Conservation Camp mail (P.O. Box 906, Klamath, CA 95548) — CDCR / CAL FIRE camp
- 450 H Street (courthouse, DA, Probation) as inmate mail
- 981 H Street (county administration) as inmate mail
- 1115 Williams Drive (Youth Opportunity Center) as adult-jail mail
The official Jail page checked 2026-09-12 publishes money deposits only and does not publish an inmate mailing address, PO box, or envelope rules. Call (707) 464-4191 and ask for the current format (booked name, any housing line, and whether mail goes to 650 Fifth Street or a different box). Do not assume the visitor door is the mail door.
Postage when someone has no money: Not published on the reviewed Jail page. Ask (707) 464-4191.
Money and commissary
How to send money to Del Norte County Jail.
The published deposit route is Access Corrections. Confirm the person is still housed here and keep the booking number ready before depositing.
- 01
Official Jail page (checked 2026-09-12): online portal Access Corrections at accesscorrections.com/V2/home.
- 02
If you do not want to use the online portal, or it is having issues, call 866-394-0490 to make the deposit over the phone.
- 03
In person: kiosk in the lobby at 650 Fifth Street.
- 04
The Jail page does not publish kiosk hours, deposit caps, or whether cash/cards are accepted at the kiosk. Ask at the lobby or call (707) 464-4191.
- 05
Do not put cash in an envelope and hope it posts — mail-deposit rules are not on that page.
Release and property
Bail, property, and commissary pickup
2026 Del Norte Superior Court schedule, or a licensed bond
Del Norte Superior Court 2026 Bail and Penalty Schedule (effective January 1, 2026, delnorte.courts.ca.gov/system/files/forms-filing/2026-bail-schedule.pdf): before first appearance, if there is no warrant amount, the Sheriff sets bail from this uniform schedule. After first appearance, the judge sets bail. Murder: no bail until set by the court; murder with special circumstances: no bail. Felony probation violation: no bail on the schedule. Confirm the person is still here on CitizenRIMS or (707) 464-4191. The Jail page does not publish cash-vs-bond lobby rules. Posting a bond does not guarantee release if a probation hold, parole hold, or out-of-county warrant applies. An ICE detainer alone is not a lawful California hold (Gov. Code § 7284.6). Jail411 does not publish a bondsman directory.
Sheriff Personal Property Request form, or call (707) 464-4191
Official Personal Property Request page (checked 2026-09-12): Sheriff form at co.del-norte.ca.us/departments/Sheriff/Request, Google Form linked from that page. Call (707) 464-4191. This is not visiting.
Call (707) 464-4191 — leftover-funds rule not on the Jail page
Not published on the Jail page checked 2026-09-12. Call (707) 464-4191 about leftover trust-account funds or commissary.
After booking
Court, a lawyer, probation, and parole.
Court, counsel, and probation are separate from the jail. State parole is a different agency. This is the process a family actually has to walk—not a directory of private bondsmen or attorneys.

This 450 H Street building is the courthouse — not jail visiting at 650 Fifth Street.
450 H Street is the courthouse. Jail visiting is 650 Fifth Street. Do not go to Pelican Bay for a county case.
Ask at first appearance — 450 H Street
Ask the judge at first appearance at 450 H Street, Room 209, if you cannot afford an attorney. The county department directory checked 2026-09-12 does not list a Public Defender office with a public street address or phone (an RFP for Public Defender services appears in the county sitemap). Self-Help (707) 465-8634 is forms help, not appointed criminal defense.
No live Public Defender department page with a door and phone was on co.del-norte.ca.us/departments when checked 2026-09-12. Self-Help Assistant: Tuesday–Friday 8:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m., closed noon–1:00 p.m., (707) 465-8634, selfhelp@delnorte.courts.ca.gov — not a substitute for appointed counsel. SHARP (sharpcourts.org) is described by the court as a self-help center for people without attorneys.
Probation is not parole
Official Probation page (checked 2026-09-12): call (707) 464-7215 before coming to the department lobby for instructions on how and when to report. Email probation@co.del-norte.ca.us. A probation hold can block release after bail. Adult Services covers formal probation, PRCS, and Mandatory Supervision. Pre-Trial Services is a Probation unit. Youth booking is this department — not the adult jail lobby.
Juvenile Detention: the county currently contracts with Humboldt and Shasta. Do not treat 1115 Williams Drive as a detention hall — that address is the Youth Opportunity Center.
No Crescent City parole office on the directory
CDCR Northern Region directory updated 9/11/2026 does not list a Crescent City parole office. Nearest published Northern Region office is Eureka, 2326 3rd Street, Eureka, CA 95501, (707) 445-6520. Ukiah is 798 North State Street, Ukiah, CA 95482, (707) 463-5713. State parole is not Del Norte County Probation. Report to the office named in the release papers.
