Beaver County Jail Inmate Overview
Beaver County Jail is operated by the Beaver County Sheriff's Office. The current sheriff is Scott Mitchell, and the county sheriff page states that the sheriff has power and authority to operate the county jail, preserve the peace, secure people charged with felonies or breaches of the peace, and serve district-court papers and warrants. That makes the sheriff's office the local source for real-time Beaver County Jail custody questions, especially when online systems do not show enough detail.
The facility should be treated as a small rural county jail, not a state prison and not a federal detention center. It holds adult arrestees, people waiting for district-court action, people serving short local sentences, and people held for transport. The county site does not publish a jail housing map, jail administrator page, public booking desk rules, or a complete online roster. Tiger Commissary confirms Beaver County Jail is active for web deposits and commissary orders, but that service is a transaction tool. It is not the official roster and does not show the full custody record.
The official county sheriff page gives the sheriff's mailing address, phone, fax, email, and office hours. Multiple correctional location sources place the jail and sheriff's office at the Avenue E address in Beaver. Use the physical address for directions or in-person questions, and use the P.O. Box for mailed sheriff correspondence unless staff gives a different instruction.
Beaver County Jail Inmate Population
Current official capacity, average daily population, annual bookings, and demographic breakdowns are not published on the Beaver County site. That absence matters because a Tiger search result should not be used as a population count. Tiger may show only people who can receive deposits or commissary orders through that vendor. It can omit a new booking, a person who has been released, a person not set up for the service, or a person transferred to another agency.
Historical correctional population tables give two useful points, but they are old snapshots rather than a current jail dashboard. The Prisoners of the Census correctional population table lists Beaver County Jail with 26 local inmates as of 12/31/2013. An older table listed 11 local jail inmates as of 3/31/2006. Beaver County does not publish a current rated capacity sheet, and third-party bed counts should not be treated as official. For current population data, request the daily jail count, rated capacity, and average daily population from the sheriff.
Look Up Beaver County Jail Inmates
Beaver County does not publish a full official jail roster on its county website. The practical lookup starts with the sheriff or jail phone line, then moves to Tiger for a narrow deposit or commissary check. If the person has a filed case, court records can help explain the charge path. If the person has been sentenced to Oklahoma Department of Corrections custody, the county jail search no longer fits.
- Call the Beaver County Sheriff's Office at 580-625-4549 and ask whether the person is currently held at Beaver County Jail, released, or transferred.
- Use the Tiger Commissary inmate selector only to search or select a person for deposits or commissary.
- Search by last name or by a linked first-letter filter. Linked letters can change as the available inmate list changes.
- Confirm any Tiger match with the jail before relying on it for custody, bond, visitation, or release decisions.
- Use ODCR or OSCN for court filings after charges are filed, and use ODOC, BOP, or ICE only when the custody type has moved outside the local jail.
Tiger result rows show first name, middle name, last name, and a masked or partial ID. Tiger does not show mugshots, booking date, booking number, charges, bond amount, arresting agency, housing unit, court date, release status, or detainers. A Tiger result can help with a commissary transaction, but an absent Tiger result is not proof that the person is out of custody.
The Tiger Commissary Beaver County Jail service page shows the local facility chooser for Web Deposits and Order Commissary.
The service page is useful because it confirms Beaver County Jail facility ID 109 is active for those transaction paths, while the custody facts still need sheriff confirmation.
Beaver County Jail Address and Contact
Use the jail and sheriff contact channels for current custody, bond, release, visitation, mail, property, medical notice, and records questions. The sheriff page lists public office hours, but custody operations can involve booking, transport, or release questions outside a normal office visit. Call before driving to the facility, especially from another Panhandle community.
Beaver County Jail
215 Avenue E
Beaver, OK 73932
Mail: P.O. Box 687, Beaver, OK 73932
580-625-4549
Fax: 580-625-4261

Office hours: 8:00-4:00
A written records request should identify the inmate or arrestee, date of arrest or booking if known, the record sought, and the requester's contact details. Oklahoma open-records law covers public records unless a statute or exemption limits release. Ask the sheriff whether inspection, copies, email, fax, or mail is the best route, and ask about any copy or search fee before staff begins work.
Beaver County Jail Visitation
Beaver County does not publish a jail visitation schedule, online visit scheduler, video visit vendor, dress code, visitor list rule, or handbook on the county website. That means the safe rule is to call before any visit. Ask whether visits are available, whether the person is eligible, what identification is required, whether minors may visit, and whether the visit is in person or remote.
| Visit Topic | Published Status | What to Do First |
|---|---|---|
| Schedule | Not published by Beaver County | Call 580-625-4549 before traveling. |
| Visit type | In-person or video rules not published | Ask staff which format is available for the inmate. |
| Identification | Specific local rule not published | Bring government photo ID and confirm any extra requirements. |
| Dress and property | County jail handbook not found | Avoid weapons, contraband, large bags, and electronics in secure areas. |
| Attorney or professional visit | Procedure not posted online | Call the sheriff's office to confirm access and timing. |
Travel planning matters in Beaver County because the jail serves a large rural area. U.S. Highways 64, 83, 270, and 412 are major routes through the Panhandle area, and no fixed-route public transit to the jail was found in county materials. The county site also does not publish parking, visitor entrance, or ADA entrance instructions, so visitors who need access help should call first.
Note: Confirm visitation, visitor approval, and inmate eligibility with Beaver County Jail before leaving for the facility.
Beaver County Jail Money and Mail
Tiger Commissary supports Beaver County Jail Web Deposits and Order Commissary, but it does not publish every local jail rule. After selecting Beaver County Jail, users choose the service, search or select an inmate, and then proceed to deposit or order details. The money-deposit form observed during research included hidden minimum and maximum values of 20 and 150, card and billing fields, a processing-fee terms checkbox, and Heartland Payment Services references. The exact processing fee was not visible before payment review.
| Service | Provider or Local Detail | Published Limits |
|---|---|---|
| Web Deposits | Tiger Commissary for Beaver County Jail facility ID 109 | Observed hidden minimum 20 and maximum 150; exact fee not visible. |
| Order Commissary | Tiger Commissary service chooser | Delivery timing can change by service page and order window. |
| Bond | Not Tiger Commissary | Call the jail or court clerk for bond amount, holds, and accepted payment. |
| Confirm format with Beaver County Jail | No county mail rule or inmate address format published online. | |
| Phone or video calls | Vendor not published by Beaver County | Ask jail staff what system is used and how accounts are funded. |
Do not send cash, checks, packages, books, or photos until staff confirms the rule. A safe mail request asks for the inmate name format, booking or ID number if needed, approved mailing address, photo limits, legal mail process, and whether postcards, envelopes, or printed pages are allowed. For bond, use the sheriff and court channels instead of Tiger, because inmate trust deposits do not post court bond.
Beaver County Jail Booking Records
Booking records start with the jail. Court records start later, when a citation, complaint, information, indictment, or other case filing reaches Beaver County District Court. That split is important. A jail booking can exist before a court case appears, and a court charge may differ from the arrest allegation. The sheriff is the direct source for current custody, release, bond, booking sheets, and jail-held records. The court clerk and court portals are the better route for filed charges and docket events.
For court records after a jail arrest, search ODCR or OSCN by name, case number, and Beaver County court. The court record may show filed counts, docket entries, warrants, bond entries, payments, dispositions, or future settings. It will not reliably show present jail housing. For the broader custody record fields and fallback process, the Beaver County jail inmate records page separates Tiger, sheriff, court, VINE, DOC, BOP, and ICE lookup paths.
- Booking
- Jail intake after arrest, including identity checks, property, safety screening, and custody paperwork.
- Bond
- Security set by a judge or court process that may allow release while the case is pending.
- Detainer
- A hold or request from another agency, such as another county, DOC, ICE, or a federal authority.
Beaver County Jail Lookup Fallbacks
A Beaver County Jail search should not stop at one website. Use Oklahoma VINE for custody-status notifications when available. Use the Oklahoma Department of Corrections OK Offender Lookup after a Beaver County defendant has been sentenced to state custody. ODOC notes that transfer from county jail to state custody can normally take months, so a sentenced person may stay in a county jail before the state locator shows a housed state-prison record.
Federal and immigration custody use separate systems. The Bureau of Prisons locator covers sentenced federal inmates from 1982 forward, but it is not a complete locator for federal pretrial detainees held by the U.S. Marshals Service. ICE's detainee locator searches current ICE custody or CBP custody over 48 hours by A-number and country of birth or by name details. No active BOP prison, ICE detention center, or state prison facility was confirmed inside Beaver County.
The official Beaver County Sheriff's Office page lists the local sheriff contact block and jail authority statement.
That page is the local anchor for Beaver County Jail questions because no separate county jail roster, mugshot gallery, or visitation handbook was found.
