The Coconino Co Flagstaff Jail is a detention center located at 951 E Sawmill Rd Flagstaff, AZ which is operated locally by the Coconino County Sheriff's Office and holds inmates awaiting trial or sentencing or both. Most of the sentenced inmates are here for less than two years. Coconino County accepts inmates from surrounding towns, Flagstaff Police Department, and the US Marshal's Service.

New detainees arrive at the jail regularly, with some being released on bail, placed under pretrial services caseloads, supervised by probation agencies, or released on recognizance with a court appearance agreement. Those who are not released await their court appearances at the jail, receiving accommodations including bedding and meals.

Mail sent to inmates via regular mail at the Coconino County Detention Facility will be inspected by jail staff before being delivered to the inmate. Newspapers, magazines, and books are only accepted if they are received through the USPS or other commercial carriers directly from a publisher, ensuring that no literature from personal senders is accepted. Inmates may subscribe to periodicals, but these subscriptions must be arranged and maintained by the inmate or their family without assistance from the jail. All books and periodicals must be addressed with the inmate’s full name as it appears on their ID. Packages containing items other than books will be refused.

The facility also manages a Trust/Commissary Account for inmates, which is used to purchase commissary items and pay for medical services within the jail. Funds can be transferred by the inmate to a prepaid account, and upon release, any remaining balance is provided to the inmate in the form of a check. When money is deposited into an inmate's trust account, any outstanding debts for services, such as medical co-pays, are automatically deducted first. The remaining funds are then available for commissary purchases or phone time.

It is important to note that funds deposited into an inmate’s commissary account may take up to 72 hours to become available, so they might not be immediately accessible for commissary purchases. All transactions handled by money transfer agents incur a service or convenience fee, from which the Coconino County Sheriff’s Office does not receive any portion. Upon an inmate's release, the balance of any remaining funds in their account is provided to them in the form of a check. For more detailed information, individuals can visit the Inmate Commissary page.
