Two Washingtons

This guide covers the county jail at 399 Broadway, Fort Edward, run by the Washington County Sheriff. Washington Correctional Facility is a separate state prison run by DOCCS, with its own guide. Washington County jails also exist in many other states.

The Facility

The Washington County Correctional Facility opened in 2003, replacing the old jail in Salem that dated from the late 1800s. It uses direct supervision, and the Corrections Division has 56 full-time and about 20 part-time officers.

Note the Facility ID Number

The lobby cash machine asks for the person’s facility ID number, or their full name and date of birth.

Bail

Bail is taken in exact cash, by credit card in person (with a fee), or online. Bring photo ID to post bail in person.

Fort Edward, Not the State Prison

Once VINE shows them at the county jail on Broadway, not Washington Correctional Facility, write down their full name. Pigeonly can print a note you compose on your phone and mail it to 399 Broadway for you.
