How do you know if your Inmate will be available during the time you schedule?

Once you schedule a visit with your inmate they will be notified of the date and time of the visit.

Bibb County Jail Visitation Application Process
Bibb County Jail requires all visitors to be approved by both the inmate and the jail prior to visiting your inmate, even if the visit is a remote video visit.
Incomplete information on any application is cause for denial.
Honesty, especially regarding past criminal convictions, probation etc., is important. These things will most likely show up on a background check, if one is done - which if lied about - will cause visits to be denied.
