We don't keep a Murrieta branch. Murrieta is covered from our staffed Riverside office on Market Street, up the 215 — and because the county's Byrd Detention Center is right there in Murrieta, most southwest-county holds never need to travel to Riverside at all.

Licensed agents on every shift, honest answers about where your family member actually is, and financing built for families who didn't plan on an arrest this week.
In most of Riverside County a transfer means a long drive north to Robert Presley in downtown Riverside. Murrieta is the exception: the Sheriff's Cois M. Byrd Detention Center is inside the city on Auld Road. A Murrieta arrestee held past initial processing usually stays in southwest county, which means families are not chasing a booking up the 215.
A licensed agent answers the phone at 3 a.m. on a Sunday the same way we answer at 3 p.m. on a Wednesday. Murrieta bookings do not wait for business hours, and neither do we.
English and Spanish-speaking agents on every shift. Premium, cosigner obligations, and payment terms get explained in the language your family actually speaks.
Most bonds under $100,000 are written on a qualified signature alone — no property, no pink slip. Above that, collateral may be requested depending on the charge and how the cosigner qualifies.
California fixes the premium at 10% of the bail. The down payment is what flexes — as low as 1% on approved credit, with the balance on a written plan.
California License #1846101, with a staffed office at 3959 Market St Ste C, Riverside, CA 92501 covering Murrieta — a real office with real agents, not a national call center routing your case to a stranger.
Murrieta runs the standard Riverside County sequence with a short local loop: book with Murrieta PD, check the charge against the county's October 2025 bail schedule, then post at the police department or the Byrd facility depending on where the defendant actually is.
The Murrieta Police Department at 2 Town Square, Murrieta, CA 92562, (951) 304-2677 is a genuine independent municipal department, not a Sheriff contract. Prints, photo, and record checks have to clear before a bond can post.
Bail comes from the Riverside County Felony and Misdemeanor Bail Schedule effective October 20, 2025 — the same county-wide document used in Riverside, Corona, and everywhere else in the county. It also determines whether the charge is Cite and Release, Book and Release, Pre-Arraignment Review, or standard bail.
Call (951) 692-7388 with a full legal name and date of birth. We check the Murrieta city booking and the Riverside County system, tell you where they are right now, and read back the exact bail amount and premium before you pay anything.
A short cosigner conversation — employment, residence, and how the balance gets paid. Most approvals take minutes, and most Murrieta bonds require no collateral.
We post at the facility holding the defendant, whether that's the city jail or the county detention centers after transfer. Release from a municipal booking area is usually faster; the county facilities run a processing queue that can take several hours, longer on weekends and holidays.
The remaining premium is paid on the written schedule agreed up front. No surprise fees, and we remind you of every court date so the bond stays in good standing.
Bail amounts for Murrieta arrests come from the Riverside County Felony and Misdemeanor Bail Schedule (effective October 20, 2025), the same county-wide schedule used for every other city in Riverside County.

The premium is fixed by California law. The down payment is where we can help.
Bail premium rates in California are filed with and approved by the Department of Insurance under Cal. Ins. Code §1800. A bondsman quoting a Murrieta family less than the filed 10% premium as the total cost is quoting something they can't legally deliver.
Once the bond is posted the premium is earned in full — whether the case is dismissed at arraignment or runs two years. That's the price of the surety, not a deposit held against the bail.
Down payments start as low as 1% of the bail on approved credit. The remainder of the 10% premium is financed on a written plan with fixed installments you agree to before signing.
Most Murrieta bonds under $100,000 are written on a qualified cosigner's signature. Larger bonds may call for collateral depending on the charge and the cosigner's file.
| Bail Amount | 10% Premium | Down At 1% |
|---|---|---|
| $20,000 | $2,000 | $200 |
| $50,000 | $5,000 | $500 |
| $100,000 | $10,000 | $1,000 |
The 1% figure is a down payment on approved credit, not a discounted premium — the full 10% is still owed on the payment plan. For the full 1% through 10% tier comparison and who qualifies for each, see affordable bail bonds.
Murrieta is unusual in that both the arresting agency and the county detention center are inside the same city. Booking starts at Murrieta PD on Town Square and continuing custody usually stays local at the Byrd facility.

Murrieta's independent municipal police department. Temporary holding during booking; anyone held past initial processing goes to the Sheriff's Cois M. Byrd Detention Center on Auld Road, also in Murrieta.
Where Murrieta Arrestees Transfer
30755-B Auld Rd, Murrieta, CA 92563
(951) 696-3050
The Sheriff's southwest-county facility, inside Murrieta itself. This is where Murrieta, Temecula, Menifee, and Lake Elsinore holds typically land — which is why a Murrieta family usually does not have to drive to downtown Riverside.
4000 Orange St, Riverside, CA 92501
(951) 955-4500
The Sheriff's downtown Riverside facility, roughly forty miles north on the 215. Less common for a Murrieta booking, but classification, medical needs, or population can move someone here — so we confirm the facility before posting.
Have these ready and we can locate the booking — city jail or county — and quote the premium on the first call.

Bail is set by the Riverside County Superior Court schedule, not by the city — so a Murrieta booking starts from the same figures as one anywhere else in the county. The ranges below are county schedule ranges, not city-specific numbers.
County schedule range: $5,000 – $100,000
A first misdemeanor DUI sits at the low end of the schedule and can sometimes release on citation. Priors, injury, or a high BAC push the amount up fast.
View PageCounty schedule range: $50,000 – $100,000
Corporal injury filings book high and usually come with a protective order at arraignment. Release conditions matter as much as the bond — we walk cosigners through both before anything is signed.
View PageCounty schedule range: $10,000 – $100,000+
Simple possession books low and often qualifies for diversion. Possession for sale and transportation book far higher, and weight or priors move the number quickly.
View PagePC §240 / §245(a)(1)
County schedule range: $25,000 – $50,000
Simple battery books at the low end. Assault with a deadly weapon is a strike-eligible felony and books substantially higher, often with additional enhancements filed.
View PagePC §484/§487 and PC §459
County schedule range: $20,000 – $50,000
Petty theft books low; grand theft and first-degree residential burglary book substantially higher and carry felony jail or prison exposure. Burglary has its own dedicated page on this site.
View PageMurrieta is a city of roughly 110,949 people in southwest Riverside County, sitting where the 15 and the 215 rejoin just north of Temecula. It grew from a small ranching community into a full suburban city in about two decades, and it kept its own police department through that growth rather than contracting with the Sheriff.
The practical fact that separates Murrieta from most of the county is the presence of the Cois M. Byrd Detention Center on Auld Road. Because the Sheriff runs a real detention facility inside the city, the usual Riverside County pattern of 'book locally, then drive an hour north' mostly doesn't apply here. Families in Murrieta, Temecula, Menifee, and Lake Elsinore generally track a booking within a few miles of home.
Murrieta cases are filed in the Riverside County Superior Court system with bail set from the county-wide schedule. We won't name a specific courthouse department for a given case — that depends on the filing, and the court's own information is the right source rather than our guess. What we can confirm before you pay anything is whether the charge falls into one of the 2025 no-bail release categories.
