The Washington Co Jail, located at 1735 Kaolin Rd in Sandersville, GA, is a secure detention center operated by the Washington County Sheriff's Office. This facility primarily houses individuals awaiting trial or sentencing, typically for less than two years. It accepts inmates from various jurisdictions, including surrounding towns, municipalities, the US Marshal's Service, and the Sandersville Police Department.

New detainees are regularly admitted to the jail, with some being released on bail or placed under pretrial services caseloads. Others await their court appearances at the facility, receiving necessary accommodations such as bedding and meals. View all arrest records here.

Inmates serving as trustees within the jail undertake various tasks, including cooking, laundry, and commissary management, often receiving minimal compensation or sentence reduction for their services.

The jail offers a phone program for outbound calls only, with inmates unable to receive incoming calls. Accepting collect calls can be expensive, sometimes exceeding $10 per call. Alternatively, setting up an account through a third-party phone company may entail high fees per minute of usage. Click here for discounts on inmate calls, especially if the communication with your inmate is frequent. It's important to remember that all phone calls are recorded, and discussing sensitive legal matters over these lines is discouraged.

The Washington County Jail has the capacity of housing 200+ inmates. Those who are sentenced to serve one year or less, those who are awaiting trial, and those who have been sentenced but are awaiting transfer to another facility are housed here.   Our inmates are offered the opportunity to attain their G.E.D. There are two part-time chaplains on duty for the inmates, and they are allowed ample opportunity to participate in bible studies and church services.
