Posting Bond
Bond may be posted for inmates 24 hours a day at the McHenry
County Sheriff's Department Correctional Bureau facility
except during shift change at 6:00 AM - 6:30 AM, 2:00 PM - 2:30 PM
and 10:00 PM - 10:30 PM. Acceptable payment methods are listed
below:
- Cash (Note: If you are posting bond with cash, you need to have
the exact amount for the bond and bail processing fee. Only the
exact amount will be accepted and the facility does not have a way
to make change.)
- Traveler's Checks
- MasterCard, Visa or Discover (a fee on the use of credit cards
will be charged)
- Cashier's checks will only be accepted after being approved on
a case-by-case basis by the Circuit Clerk's Office. The
correctional division must receive notification of the approval
from the Circuit Clerk's Office before the cashier's check will be
accepted for bond.
Effective July 7, 2003, a $28.00 bail bond processing fee will
be assessed when bond is posted at the McHenry County Sheriff's
Department Correctional Bureau facility. This fee is being
collected pursuant to McHenry County Ordinance No.
