Arrested in Miramar? All Broward County bookings process through the BSO Main Jail. We connect you with licensed local bondsmen.
Miramar Police Department (MPD) is one of the largest municipal police forces in Broward County, serving a city of over 140,000 residents along the Broward-Miami-Dade county line. MPD handles all arrests within city limits, but like every Broward municipality, there is no local jail. All defendants transport to the BSO Main Jail in Fort Lauderdale, about 25 minutes north on I-75 or the Turnpike.
Miramar sits directly on the Broward-Miami-Dade county line. Pembroke Road is roughly the border. An arrest on the north side goes to BSO (Broward). An arrest on the south side, in Miami Gardens or Opa-Locka, goes to TGK (Miami-Dade). Two different jails, two different circuits, two different bail systems. If you are unsure which county, check the arresting agency first. For Broward details, see our Fort Lauderdale page.
Miramar PD has over 300 sworn officers and operates specialized units including a K-9 unit, marine patrol on the nearby canals, and a dedicated traffic homicide investigation team. The department's station at 2300 Civic Center Place processes arrests before transport. Arrest reports can be requested through MPD's records division at (954) 602-4000.
Both I-75 and Florida's Turnpike run through Miramar, making it a major transit corridor. Drug interdiction stops and DUI checkpoints along these highways generate a steady stream of arrests. The geographic spread of the city means transport times to the BSO jail in Fort Lauderdale can vary from 15-30 minutes depending on which part of Miramar the arrest occurred in.
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.
