Sevier County Jail Overview
Sevier County Jail is operated by the Sevier County Sheriff's Office at the Richfield public-safety complex. It is not physically in Wayne County, but it is the jail named in the official UDC jail-programs material for Wayne County sentenced jail offenders. The Wayne County emergency services page lists Sheriff M. A. Gulley, and Wayne County Sheriff's Office in Loa remains the local law-enforcement and records contact for Wayne arrests. The facility role is important because families often need jail-specific rules after transport, including visits, mail, phone, commissary, and requests for jail booking records.
The official Sevier app/site includes modules for Inmate Search, Recent Arrests, Inmate Mail, Commissary Deposit, Courts, Bail Bonds, Fingerprinting, Inmate Handbook, Inmate Demographics, Felony Release Report, GRAMA, records requests, and video visits. During research, the public inmate and recent-arrest feeds showed no current entries. That makes phone confirmation essential before travel, deposits, mail, or visit scheduling.
Sevier County Jail Population
Official Sevier inmate-demographics data counted 589 booked persons during 2025. That figure is facility-wide and should not be labeled as a Wayne-only population. It does, however, describe the serving jail that Wayne County pages must cover. The same source counted 451 male bookings, 138 female bookings, 174 pre-sentence booked persons, 52 sentenced inmates, 2 weekend-sentenced inmates, and 14 people coded as hold for state prison.
The jail capacity was not stated on the official Sevier pages reviewed. UDC's Wayne-specific fact is that Wayne County has zero jail beds and sends sentenced jail offenders to Sevier County Jail.
Look Up Sevier County Jail Inmates
The correct first facility system is the Sevier County Sheriff app or site. It has inmate-search and recent-arrests features, plus a jail information menu. Because those public feeds were empty during inspection, a search should include direct phone confirmation and external custody tools. UDC should be used only after state prison, probation, or parole custody begins. BOP and ICE are separate federal systems.
- Open the Sevier County Sheriff official app site and check the jail information features.
- Use the inmate search or recent-arrests feature if it is displaying public records.
- Call Sevier County Sheriff's Office at 435-896-2600, or verify the commonly listed jail line at 435-896-2660.
- Search VINE, Utah Courts Xchange, or UDC depending on whether the question is custody, charges, or sentenced state custody.
The official Sevier app is also available in the Apple and Google app stores for users who need its jail information and records modules.
The app is a Sevier County Sheriff tool for the serving jail, not a Wayne County Sheriff app.
Sevier County Jail Contact
Contact the jail or sheriff office before traveling from Wayne County, scheduling visits, depositing money, or sending mail. Official sources did not publish a visitor parking rate, public transit route, ADA entrance description, or detailed lobby screening process. The safest action is to confirm current custody and current visitor rules first.

Sevier County Jail Visits
Current Sevier visitation material says the site does not offer in-person public visits. Onsite visits are video visits. Each inmate is allowed two free onsite video visits per week, and visitors must create a JailATM account even for onsite visits. The same account is used for visiting from home. Visit eligibility may be affected by lockdown, discipline, and housing status.
| Visit Type | Allowance | Account / Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Onsite video | Two free onsite video visits per week | JailATM account required. |
| Remote video | Schedule not published in table form | Use JailATM and confirm with jail. |
| Legal or attorney | Not published in reviewed pages | Call facility for current process. |
Sevier County Jail Mail
Mail should be addressed to the inmate's full name at Sevier County Jail, 835 E 300 N, Suite 300, Richfield, UT 84701. Official Sevier material says mail is picked up and delivered Tuesday through Saturday except holidays. Personal mail is screened. Legal mail must be clearly marked LEGAL MAIL and is opened in the inmate's presence to check authenticity and contraband.
Family members should not hand-deliver letters. Mail must go through the U.S. Postal System. The handbook restricts hardback books, cash, personal checks, maps, coded letters, catalogs, extra stamps and envelopes, trading cards, laminated items, many packages, and unsafe or security-threatening items. Soft-bound books may be ordered from Amazon and sent directly, while other publications must follow publisher or licensed-bookstore rules.
The official Sevier inmate-mail page provides the jail mail rules.
Denied mail can trigger a notice to the inmate and may be appealed through the jail grievance process described in the handbook.
Sevier County Jail Money and Phone
Official Sevier material links commissary deposits to commissarydeposit.com and lists support@commissarydeposit.com. The handbook says commissary orders are placed through tablets, the weekly spending limit is $75, orders must be completed by 2300 hours Sunday, and orders are filled or shipped Tuesday excluding holidays. Inmates must have money available before ordering, and sharing or storing commissary for another person is prohibited.

Sevier County Jail Rules
The Sevier handbook describes a behavior-based jail environment. Inmates are expected to follow staff orders, keep living areas clean, not damage property, keep themselves clean, and behave responsibly. Privileges and program access can change based on positive or negative behavior. Tablets are a privilege, and sharing PINs, calls, or video visits is prohibited. The jail is tobacco-free, and tobacco products, lighters, matches, and smoking are prohibited.
Programs and conditions include emergency and necessary medical, mental, and dental care; meals; bedding and clothing; exercise opportunities; basic toiletries; showers; postal access; religious services; and rehabilitation programs. Recreation is weather-dependent outdoors, and the handbook describes basketball, handball, and indoor exercise options.
