About the Fayette County Jail

Fayette County Jail in the city of Fayette, Alabama is the main jail in the county and is under the oversight of the county sheriff. Fayette County Jail is a secure facility that confines inmates who are awaiting trial or sentencing, or people who have already been sentenced, both males and females.

Fayette County Jail has a capacity of 45 beds. It is a regional minimum-security jail.

The original jail in the city burned down in 1911, along with the courthouse, bank, a newspaper, and many local businesses. Significant records were lost in that fire. The city created strict rules about the materials that could be used in construction after the fire, so you'll see that the jail is a masonary building, adhering to the zoning standards that were established.

Fayette County Jail is located at 113 1st Avenue Northwest, Fayette, AL 35555. It can be contacted via  phone 205-932-3205.

Inmate Money Accounts

How Do You Deposit Money for an Inmate in the Fayette County Jail?

There are FOUR options for putting money on an inmate's books:

Option 1 - Dropping Money at the Jail
Bring money to the jail in person. 
Either the jail personnel will process the Inmate Account payment or you will use a Jail ATM self-serve kiosk in the lobbies that accepts cash, debit or credit cards.

Option 2 - Deposit Inmate Money Online
Fayette County Jail uses Jail ATM to process all online deposits to an inmate's account. The company charges you a small fee for doing so, but the fee probably isn't as much as gas and parking would cost to take it to the jail in person.

Option 3 - Mail the Inmate Deposit to the Jail
Mailing a deposit takes more time to process than the other methods but can be done if you live too far away to bring it in person and you don't have a debit/credit card for online deposits. Never send cash. Always send a Money Order from the US Post Office, a reputable bank or Western Union. Call the Fayette County Jail first as they may want you to do this online or at the jail kiosk instead.
Make the Money Order out to the inmate's name and put their Inmate ID# in memo section of the Money Order.
113 1st Avenue Northwest
Fayette, AL 35555
