Internet Jail Bed Search

With the JailBedSpace.com Web site, jail administrators seeking to rent beds for their overflow inmates can now use an online service that connects them to available bed space by clicking on a map.

JailBedSpace.com is available in 48 states. The online service includes color-coded maps to help jailers to market empty cells to other government agencies, or find space for rent.

Clicking on a county brings up the jail administrator’s name, direct phone number, e-mail address and directions to the facility. According the provider, FSG Software Inc., the service reduces staff hours wasted on calling each county individually.
