When someone you love is arrested in Alcona County, the hours feel long and the worry feels endless. We're Bail My Tail, the Butler family's bail-bonds agency, and we've been steadying scared families since Gene Butler opened our doors in 1982, work he now shares with his son Justin. If your person is being held at the Alcona County Jail, run by the Alcona County Sheriff's Office at 214 W. Main St. in Harrisville, we'll take it from here. We explain how a surety bond works without the legal jargon, gather what we need, and post the bond at the jail so you don't have to face the system alone. We write bonds throughout Michigan, and the state sets the premium at 10 percent of the bond amount, so your cost is clear, regulated, and fair from your very first call to us. Harrisville and the rest of Alcona County are the kind of close-knit places where neighbors look out for one another, and that's exactly how we treat your family. The jail stays open 24 hours a day, and our line never closes either, so it doesn't matter when the arrest happened, we're ready. After the bond is posted, release usually follows in about 2 to 8 hours, depending on how full the jail is. We'll keep you updated the whole time. Call us 24/7 at 877-869-8245, or reach our Flint office at 810-234-5776, and let's get your loved one home.

BOND POSTING LOCATION
Bond is typically posted at the Alcona County Jail / Sheriff's Office at 214 W. Main St., Harrisville. The official Sheriff's site does not publish a dedicated pay-bond page detailing accepted payment methods or hours, so verify the exact location, accepted payment types, and hours by calling 989-724-6271 before traveling. Court-ordered fines and costs can be paid online via AllPaid (allpaid.com), but that is for fines/costs, not jail bond posting.

WHAT TO BRING
Specific requirements for visitors and for property/funds drop-offs are not published on the official Sheriff's site. Call the jail at 989-724-6271 to confirm valid ID requirements and any items needed before visiting or posting bond.
