Open 24 hours, 7 days a week
We don't keep a Barstow branch. The city is worked from our staffed San Bernardino office on Hospitality Lane and by phone with the local agency, which matters more here than anywhere else in the county because of the distance involved.

Why Choose Midnight In Barstow
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.
Barstow Is Its Own Hub — Not A Suburb Of Anything
Most of this county's cities are part of a cluster: an arrest in one is functionally the same as an arrest in the next town over. Barstow is not. It sits at the interchange of Interstate 15 and Interstate 40, which is the reason it exists and the reason a large share of its arrests involve people who were driving through on their way to Las Vegas, Arizona, or the coast. It runs an independent municipal police department at 220 E Mountain View St Suite B rather than contracting to the Sheriff, and it is a genuine service center for the surrounding desert — including its own Superior Court location on the same street. We are not linking that courthouse yet because our San Bernardino courthouse pages are not built and we would rather say nothing than assign a case to the wrong department. What we will tell you on the phone is who has the person and what the bond costs.
24/7 Availability
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. Barstow bookings do not wait for business hours, and neither do we.
Bilingual Agents
English and Spanish-speaking agents on every shift. Premium, cosigner obligations, and payment terms get explained in the language your family actually speaks.
No Collateral In Most Cases
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.
Affordable Payment Plans
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.
Licensed & Accountable
California License #1846101, with a staffed office at 165 W Hospitality Ln Ste 19C, San Bernardino, CA 92408 covering Barstow — a real office with real agents, not a national call center routing your case to a stranger.
How Bail Bonds Work In Barstow
A Barstow arrest starts with a city agency at a city facility. If custody continues, the county's facilities are a long way south — which is exactly why the first hours matter here.
Arrest & Booking Through Barstow Police Department
Barstow Police Department officers make the arrest and processing begins at 220 E Mountain View St Suite B, Barstow, CA 92311. Prints, photograph, and record checks all have to clear before a bond can be accepted — that is the part nobody can shortcut. Municipal holding is short-term by design, and a bond posted inside that window can end the custody before the address changes to somewhere an hour or more down the freeway.
Charge Checked Against The County Bail Schedule
Bail is set from the Superior Court of California, County of San Bernardino Felony and Misdemeanor Bail Schedule adopted under Penal Code §1269b(c). There are no Cite and Release or Book and Release categories in this county — that structure belongs to Riverside. San Bernardino runs a conventional schedule where Section B generally does not require bail on misdemeanors unless the offense is specifically listed.
Call Midnight — We Confirm Where They Are
Call (909) 643-8359 with a full legal name and date of birth. We check the Barstow city booking and the San Bernardino County system, tell you where they are right now, and read back the exact bail amount and premium before you pay anything.
Qualification & Approval
A short cosigner conversation — employment, residence, and how the balance gets paid. Most approvals take minutes, and most Barstow bonds require no collateral.
Bond Posted Where They Actually Are
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.
Payment Plan Begins
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 Barstow arrests come from the San Bernardino County Felony and Misdemeanor Bail Schedule (effective January 1, 2026), the same county-wide schedule used for every other city in San Bernardino County.

What Bail Bonds Cost In Barstow
The premium is fixed by California law. The down payment is where we can help.
The Premium Is 10% — By Law
Bail premium rates in California are filed with and approved by the Department of Insurance under Cal. Ins. Code §1800. A bondsman quoting a Barstow family less than the filed 10% premium as the total cost is quoting something they can't legally deliver.
The Premium Is Earned, Not Refundable
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.
The Down Payment Is What's Negotiable
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.
Collateral Isn't Usually Required
Most Barstow 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.
Barstow Jails We Serve
Barstow handles the first hours locally. Anything longer becomes a county custody a substantial drive down the 15.
Barstow Police Department
220 E Mountain View St Suite B, Barstow, CA 92311
The city's independent municipal police department and the first stop for a Barstow arrest. Short-term holding only — this is the window where a bond can end the custody before a long transfer south.
Where Barstow Arrestees Transfer
High Desert Detention Center
Adelanto, CA
The county's principal High Desert custody facility, roughly 40 minutes south in Adelanto, and the closest large jail to Barstow. A dedicated facility page is still being built.
Central Detention Center
630 E Rialto Ave, San Bernardino, CA 92415
The county's downtown San Bernardino intake facility, more than an hour south down the Cajon Pass. Less common for a desert arrest, but classification or an open valley hold can route someone there.
What We Need When You Call
Have these ready and we can locate the booking — city jail or county — and quote the premium on the first call.
Defendant's Full Legal Name
First, middle, and last as it appears on their ID. Nicknames slow the jail search.
Date of Birth
Prevents confusion when multiple people share the same name in the booking system.
City or County of Arrest
Tells us which jail to check first — Riverside, San Bernardino, LA, Orange, or San Diego.
Booking Number (If Available)
Not required, but if you have it, it speeds up locating the record considerably.
Cosigner Contact Info
Cosigner's name, phone, employer, and general credit range — this is what determines your financing terms.
Your Relationship to the Defendant
Family, friend, or coworker — helps us know who to loop in on updates and paperwork.
Most Common Bail Charges In Barstow
Bail is set by the San Bernardino County Superior Court schedule, not by the city — so a Barstow booking starts from the same figures as one anywhere else in the county. The ranges below are county schedule ranges, not city-specific numbers.
DUI
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 PageDomestic Violence
County 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 PageDrug Possession & Sale
County 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 PageAssault & Battery
PC §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 PageTheft & Burglary
PC §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 PageAbout Barstow
Barstow is a Mojave Desert city of roughly 25,000 people in the middle of San Bernardino County, about 70 miles north of the city of San Bernardino. It grew up around the railroad — the Harvey House at the old Casa del Desierto depot is still the landmark everyone knows — and it lives today off the freeways, the rail yards, Fort Irwin traffic, and the outlet malls at Lenwood.
Barstow Police Department at 220 E Mountain View St Suite B is a genuinely independent municipal agency. That is worth confirming rather than assuming, because the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department directly contracts policing for many cities in this county and runs them under the city's own name — Victorville and Adelanto down the 15 are both Sheriff-contracted. In Barstow, the city department has your person first.
The interchange defines the caseload. I-15 carries Las Vegas traffic and I-40 carries the entire southern transcontinental route, and they cross here. A meaningful share of Barstow bookings involve out-of-town defendants with no local address, which is precisely the profile that gets quoted a higher down-payment tier elsewhere. We will tell you honestly where a case lands on that scale before anyone signs anything, rather than promising 1% and re-quoting later.
Barstow has its own Superior Court location on the same street as the police department, which is unusual for a city this size and reflects how far it is from anywhere else. We are not naming a courthouse or department for a specific case on this page — the San Bernardino courthouse research is not finished, and we would rather leave a gap than invent an assignment. What we will confirm on the first call is whether the charge carries scheduled bail under the county bail schedule.
