Oceana County Jail

If someone you love has just been taken to the Oceana County Jail in Hart, your mind is probably racing. We understand, and we can help. Bail My Tail is a family agency built on trust since Gene Butler started it in 1982, now run with his son Justin, and we've guided Michigan families through countless nights like this. The Oceana County Jail is at 216 Lincoln Street, Hart, MI 49420, and it's open 24 hours. Our toll-free line is always answered too, so call 877-869-8245 the minute you need us. We'll find out the bond amount, explain how everything works in clear language, and post the bond so your family member can get home. Michigan keeps surety bonds at a 10% premium of the full bail, which means you pay only that share up front instead of the whole amount, and we write bonds statewide. We accept cash, all major credit cards, debit, and bank transfer, and qualifying clients can set up a payment plan. Once we've posted the bond, release from the Oceana County Jail usually takes about 2 to 8 hours, depending on how busy the jail is. There's no reason to sit with this worry alone. Call Bail My Tail and let our family go to work for yours.
