How to find an inmate
Check the Guilford County Sheriff's Office online inmate lookup, or call the Guilford County Detention Center in Greensboro with the person's full name and date of birth. The sheriff also runs a detention facility in High Point, so ask which location is holding the person. For someone sentenced to state prison, use the North Carolina Department of Adult Correction offender search.
Visitation
The Guilford County Sheriff's Office sets visitation rules for the Greensboro and High Point facilities, and visitors usually must register in advance and bring valid photo ID. Schedules and video-visit options can change, so confirm current procedures with the detention center or the sheriff's official site before you go.
Bail and bond
In North Carolina, a magistrate or judge sets release conditions and bond after arrest. Bonds for people held in Guilford County may be posted in cash at the detention center or magistrate's office, or through a licensed bail bondsman. Call the detention center to confirm the bond amount and accepted payment methods.
Mail and money
Mail must be addressed with the inmate's full name and identifying number to the Guilford County Detention Center and must follow the sheriff's mail rules. Money can usually be added to an inmate's commissary account through approved methods. Confirm current mail rules, deposit options, and any fees with the facility.
