What Information to Gather Before Calling
Having the following information available helps a licensed agent locate records and explain your options. You do not need every item to start — provide what you have.
How to Confirm the Current Holding Facility
An arrest in Corona does not, by itself, identify where the person is currently held. Corona is served by the Corona Police Department and, in some areas, the Riverside County Sheriff's Department. After arrest, a person may be held at the Corona Police Department facility, transferred to a Riverside County Sheriff jail, or moved to another facility depending on the charges, classification, and available space.
To locate someone arrested in Corona, use the official Riverside County Sheriff inmate locator at riversidesheriff.org. Search by full legal name and date of birth. Recent bookings may not appear immediately — if you cannot find the person, call Post It Bail Bonds for assistance.
What Happens if Someone Is Transferred
After initial processing, a person arrested in Corona may be transferred to a different facility. Common receiving facilities for Riverside County arrests include Robert Presley Detention Center in Riverside and Larry D. Smith Correctional Facility in Banning. The specific facility depends on classification, medical needs, available space, and other custody factors.
If the person has been moved, the official inmate locator should reflect the updated location once the transfer is processed. Transfers can take time to appear in public records. Call Post It Bail Bonds if you need help tracking the current custody location.

Understanding the Bail Amount and Bail Bond Premium
The bail amount is set by the court or jail based on the Riverside County bail schedule and the specific charges. A bail bond agency does not set the bail amount — that is determined by the court or the county schedule.
When you use a licensed bail bond agency, you pay a premium — a percentage of the total bail amount — rather than the full bail amount. Post It Bail Bonds uses its filed 8% premium rate. For example, a $10,000 bail amount would require an $800 premium. The premium is the fee paid to the agency and is not refunded when the case concludes.
| Bail Amount | Premium (8%) |
|---|---|
| $5,000 | $400 |
| $10,000 | $800 |
| $25,000 | $2,000 |
| $50,000 | $4,000 |
Premium examples use the filed 8% rate. Not every customer qualifies for this rate. Eligibility, collateral requirements, and payment terms are set out in the written bail agreement before anything is signed.

Learn About Payment OptionsFrequently Asked Questions
What information do I need to start a Corona bail inquiry?
Provide the defendant's full legal name and date of birth. Any additional information — such as the arresting agency, booking number, holding facility, or bail amount — helps a licensed agent locate records more quickly. You do not need all of this information to begin.
Can I ask for help without a booking number?
Yes. A booking number is helpful but not required to start an inquiry. A licensed agent can help you search available public records using the defendant's name and date of birth.
What if the person has been moved to another facility?
Transfers between facilities are common after an arrest in Corona. The official Riverside County inmate locator should reflect the updated location once the transfer is processed. Call Post It Bail Bonds if you need help locating the current custody location.
Can I start the paperwork by phone or online?
Yes. Paperwork can often be completed by telephone, email, or electronic signature. You may not need to visit an office in person to begin the bail process. A licensed agent will explain the options available for your situation.
How do I find out what payment options are available?
Call (951) 224-9327 to ask about available payment arrangements. All payment terms, collateral requirements, and obligations are set out in the written bail agreement before anything is signed. No payment is requested before the agreement is reviewed.
