Arrested in Hollywood? All Broward County bookings process through the BSO Main Jail (Central Intake Bureau). We connect you with licensed local bondsmen.
Hollywood has its own police department (HPD), but there is no city jail. All Hollywood arrests are transported to the Broward Sheriff's Office (BSO) Main Jail in Fort Lauderdale for booking through the Central Intake Bureau. The bonding window at 2601 West Broward Boulevard operates 24/7. You will need the inmate's booking number and a valid photo ID. Cash bonds require payment by cash, cashier's check, or money order payable to the Sheriff of Broward County. No personal checks or credit cards.
Hollywood Beach Broadwalk generates a consistent stream of alcohol-related arrests, especially during spring break and holiday weekends. The entertainment district along Hollywood Boulevard adds DUI, disorderly conduct, and trespass charges. These cases are handled by HPD but processed through BSO, so the inmate search is at apps.sheriff.org/arrestsearch. For details on the Broward County jail system, see our Fort Lauderdale page.
Hollywood sits immediately south of Fort Lauderdale, and the two cities share a county jail. But Hollywood is a distinct municipality with its own police force, its own court operations, and its own prosecution priorities. The Hollywood Police Department has a dedicated DUI task force that operates checkpoints along US-1 and A1A, particularly during holiday weekends and events at the Hard Rock Casino in adjacent Seminole territory.
The Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino sits on tribal land within Hollywood city limits but under federal jurisdiction. Arrests on tribal property are handled by Seminole Police, not HPD. These cases can involve federal charges rather than state charges. If someone was arrested at the Hard Rock, verify the arresting agency before calling the BSO jail, as the case may not be in the state system.
Surety bonds (10% non-refundable premium) and cash bonds are accepted. Bonding agents must be registered with the Broward County Clerk of Court. Call (941) 477-6888 to reach a registered Broward County bondsman who can post at the facility.
All arrests in these cities are processed through the county jail. The booking and bail process described above applies to every one of them.
