Delta County Detention Facility
Delta County Detention Facility
Day or night, you can get inmate information from the 73-bed Delta County Detention Facility by calling 970-874-2021.
Misdemeanor and felony arrests made in this county are brought to this facility, where the arrestee goes through booking and processing. When the charges require it, the person is held until they are released on bond, released on their own recognizance, or ordered to stay in custody until their trial is resolved.
The inmate search tool lets you browse the roster of people who have been arrested and remain in custody.
If found guilty, inmates with sentences of less than one year serve their time here. Those with longer sentences serve their time in the Colorado State Prison System or the Federal Bureau of Prisons.
This page explains how to use the jail roster, how to reach the facility, and how inmate services work, including visitation hours and policies, inmate accounts, mail, inmate calls, voicemail, email and text, tablet rentals, bail, and commissary.
You’ll often be asked for the inmate’s booking number or jail ID, so save it once you find it. If you can’t locate it online, call Delta County Detention Facility at 970-874-2021.

Everything from an inmate’s criminal charges and bond amount to their visitation eligibility and mugshot can be found on the Delta County Detention Facility’s Official Jail Inmate Roster. You can also call the jail at 970-874-2021. In addition, you can look up court dockets, which list scheduled criminal cases, for Delta County and every other county in Colorado.
Delta County Detention Facility Inmate Search
Is someone you know facing a warrant in Delta County or elsewhere in Colorado? Search Crimewatch. For information about their court case, check the official Colorado court dockets. Because not all agencies post warrants on Crimewatch, an empty search doesn’t rule out a warrant.
Most criminal defendants in Delta County and across Colorado who are charged with a non-capital offense are eligible for reasonable bail, and those charged with petty or traffic offenses usually don’t need to post monetary bail at all. Colorado law directs judges to consider several factors when setting bail:
• Whether the defendant is employed and what they can afford.
• Ties to the community, including family and how long they’ve lived there.
• The severity of the current charge.
• Past offenses and criminal record.
You can learn an inmate’s bail amount by calling the Delta County Detention Facility at 970-874-2021. A sample Colorado bond schedule is another way to estimate typical amounts, although each judicial district sets its own. The county accepts cash, a surety bond, or a property bond, or can release the offender on personal recognizance.
The Delta County Detention Facility is licensed for 73 inmates, but it often has to take in many more offenders, especially on weekends. At most city and county jails in Colorado, at least 35-40% of inmates turn over each month, another 25-30% every 90 days, and another 15-20% every six months, while around 8-9% stay six to twelve months. Those held longer than twelve months are usually facing serious charges such as rape or murder. Because those cases take longer to prepare for trial, offenders arrested in this county remain at one of the Delta County facilities much longer.
Approximately 2,860 offenders are arrested and detained annually by Delta County law enforcement agencies.

Staff is available to transport all inmates to court dates and any medical appointments or emergency needs, as well as inspecting all mail for contraband, receiving commissary funds and other money for inmates, maintaining the safety of the community and the security of the facility, and other tasks.

How is booking conducted at Delta County Detention Facility?
After an arrest, individuals are transported to Delta County Detention Facility for the booking process. This procedure ensures the person’s identity, assesses charges, and determines if they will be released, eligible for bail, or detained until court.
Remaining silent during this process is vital. Anything said could be used as evidence, so it’s wise to wait for an attorney before speaking about the arrest.
Here’s a breakdown of the booking steps at Delta County Detention Facility:
- Verifying identification information.
- Capturing mugshots for record-keeping.
- Health assessments and questions about criminal history.
- Possible DNA collection.
- Physical search for contraband or weapons.
- Securing personal belongings.
- Granting a free phone call.
