01
Anoka Area Service
GPS Bail Bonds assists City of Anoka families by phone and online. Our business location is in the Big Lake area of Sherburne County — GPS has no Anoka office — and we help you work with the city and county agencies involved.
02
Available 24/7
Call (763) 288-2581 or send the form any time. GPS answers around the clock; the Anoka Police office, Court Administration and county offices keep their own hours.
03
Police, Jail & Court Guidance
Anoka Police (275 Harrison Street), Anoka County Jail (325 Jackson Street) and Anoka County District Court (2100 3rd Avenue) are three different agencies. We explain which one handles arrests, custody and bail decisions.
04
Clear Premium & Paperwork Information
We explain the filed premium, each document you'd sign, what a cosigner takes on and when collateral might be requested — before you commit to anything.
05
Eligible Surety Bond Assistance
When the court's order permits a surety bond and underwriting is met, GPS can discuss Minnesota bond options with you. Nothing is pre-approved, and GPS cannot change a court decision.
06
Minnesota Statewide Coverage
GPS serves eligible cases throughout Minnesota, subject to the agency holding the person and bond availability — useful when an Anoka case involves Hennepin County across the river or another county.
The Anoka Police Department, an Anoka County Sheriff's deputy, the Minnesota State Patrol or another agency with jurisdiction may handle an arrest or citation. Some people are cited or released without being booked into the county jail.

Step 2 of 6
Confirm Custody Through the Official Locator
Check the Anoka County Inmate Locator or call the Jail Division at 763-324-5100. An Anoka arrest doesn't guarantee a booking at Anoka County Jail — the person may be released, not yet listed, or held elsewhere on another agency's matter.

Step 3 of 6
Verify Court-Set Bail and Release Conditions
Anoka County District Court, or another authorized legal authority, decides bail and release conditions. Court information is separate from the jail's custody records.

Step 6 of 6
Post an Authorized Bond and Follow Court Requirements
The responsible authority processes an accepted bond and the release — GPS doesn't control that timing, and other holds can delay it. The defendant must attend every hearing and follow all court orders.

Not every charge is eligible for bail, and no amounts are guaranteed — the court decides in each case.
05 · Costs
What Bail Bonds Cost in Anoka
Anoka does not have a separate city bail bond premium schedule. Anoka County District Court determines monetary bail and release conditions, while Minnesota's filed-rate and statutory rules govern commercial surety premiums statewide.
Court-Set Bail vs. Bond Premium
The court sets the bail amount. Paying it directly in cash is one option. A surety bond instead costs a premium — a fee paid to the bail bond agency that is not returned at the end of the case. Minnesota Criminal Procedure Rule 6 ↗ (opens an external site)
Filed Surety Rates & Minimum Upfront Payment
Under Minn. Stat. §60M.02, premiums follow rates filed with the Minnesota Department of Commerce. Bonds of $10,000 or less require at least 50% of the premium collected before posting; bonds greater than $10,000 require at least 30% collected before posting. Any unpaid premium balance requires the applicable approved, signed promissory note and the statutory repayment terms. The statutory minimum premium remains $100. Minnesota §60M.02 — Bail Bond Premiums ↗ (opens an external site)
Promissory Note & Repayment
Any unpaid premium balance is put in writing, with a payment schedule and any allowed interest. The signer is responsible for that balance regardless of how the case ends. The same §60M.02 rules above govern premium payment.
Use the court-set bond amount from the jail or court.
Estimates are for informational purposes only and are not a binding quote or financing offer. Actual premiums are based on the applicable approved surety rate. Payment arrangements depend on eligibility, underwriting, and Minnesota law. Call GPS Bail Bonds for a case-specific quote.

06 · Jails & custody
Anoka Jails & Custody Information
The City of Anoka has its own police department, and it is also home to the Anoka County Jail and the Anoka County District Court. The jail and court are county and state functions — neither is part of the Anoka Police Department. Confirm current custody and release terms through official sources.
Anoka City Hall2015 First AvenueAnoka, MN 55303763-576-2700
The City of Anoka operates its own police department; its office is open Monday–Friday, 8:00 a.m.–4:30 p.m. Officers may make arrests or issue citations, but the police office is not the county jail and its phone is not a custody hotline. For non-emergency police help, use the dispatch number; in an emergency, call 911.
Anoka County Workhouse (separate facility): 763-324-4860
Located in the City of Anoka but run by the county — not by the Anoka Police Department, and at a different address from the courthouse. Operated by the Anoka County Sheriff's Office as the county's primary booking and intake facility; it mainly houses people who have not been sentenced. The Anoka County Workhouse (Rum River Human Services Center, 3300 4th Avenue N., Anoka) is a separate minimum-security facility mainly for sentenced adults — it is not where an initial booking happens.
Handles criminal and traffic matters filed in Anoka County, including applicable Anoka cases. Judges decide bail and release conditions; GPS does not set bail amounts or hearing schedules. The Court Bail & Bonds line is for court bail questions — it is not an automatic phone-payment service, so confirm the authorized payment location and accepted methods first.
Start with the official Anoka County Inmate Locator. An Anoka Police arrest may end in a citation or release rather than a booking, and a person may already be out, not yet listed, or held on another agency's matter. If they aren't listed, call the Jail Division — the Anoka Police office and City Hall are not booking desks.
02
County Jail Booking
An arrest and a jail booking are different events. Booking at Anoka County Jail involves identification, custody screening and records processing, so a recent arrest may not appear in the official locator right away. Someone cited or released without booking may never be listed, and no booking or first-appearance timeline is guaranteed.
03
Official Inmate Search
Anoka County's official Inmate Locator covers people currently held in the Jail or the Workhouse, plus people released from either facility in the past 30 days; some records note a transfer to another facility. A recent-release record does not mean the person is still in custody. GPS does not operate the locator or control custody data.
Court orders control release terms. Anoka County District Court may release someone without money bail, on conditions, with money bail, or a combination — so a commercial bond is not always needed. Conditions such as no-contact or no-alcohol terms still apply after any bond is posted. Someone serving a sentence at the Workhouse is not in an ordinary pretrial-bail situation.
05
Cash Bail vs. Surety Bond
Cash bail paid directly to the government, as the court authorizes, is different from a surety premium paid to a bail bond agency, which is not returned. GPS has not confirmed Anoka County's complete cash-bail payment procedure, so call the Jail Division (763-324-5100) or Court Bail & Bonds (763-760-6540) to confirm the authorized payment location and accepted methods before traveling. That procedure does not define how GPS accepts payment.
A warrant, another case, a probation-related restriction, a transfer or another agency's hold can keep someone in custody after bail is posted on the Anoka matter. GPS cannot remove those restrictions or promise an immediate release. See our Warrant and Probation Violation guides.
Court dates
Court Appearance Information
Anoka County District Court, at 2100 3rd Avenue in Anoka and part of the Tenth Judicial District, decides bail and release conditions for cases filed in Anoka County. Court records and the county's custody locator are separate systems: Minnesota Court Records Online shows certain case information and hearings, but it is not a jail roster or a complete warrant check, and some pending criminal name searches are restricted. Public calendars can change, so confirm each required appearance from official notices or with Court Administration at 763-760-6700. Missing a required hearing can lead to a warrant and other serious consequences.

Your Contact Info & Relationship
So we can reach you and know how you're connected to the defendant.
Anoka is the county seat of Anoka County. County government is based in the city, including the Anoka County Courthouse at 2100 3rd Avenue — a county and state facility, not City Hall.
The city developed where the Rum River meets the Mississippi. According to the city's history, logs were floated down the Rum to the Mississippi in the late 1840s, the first Rum River dam was built in 1853 and the first sawmill opened in 1854.
U.S. Highway 10 is a major transportation corridor through Anoka, linking the city with Ramsey to the west and Coon Rapids to the east.
Anoka maintains its own municipal police department at 275 Harrison Street, a separate city facility from Anoka City Hall at 2015 First Avenue.
Anoka County Jail (325 Jackson Street) and Anoka County District Court (2100 3rd Avenue) are both in the city, at separate addresses with separate functions — and neither is the Anoka Police Department.
GPS Bail Bonds serves Anoka families by phone and online from its Big Lake-area business location in Sherburne County; GPS does not operate an office in Anoka.

Anoka Bail Bonds FAQs
Yes. Call (763) 288-2581 or use the form at any hour, including nights, weekends and holidays. GPS helps by phone and online from its Big Lake-area business location and has no office in the City of Anoka.
If someone is booked, it is generally at Anoka County Jail, 325 Jackson Street in Anoka — the Sheriff's primary intake facility for the county. That isn't guaranteed: some people are cited and released, and a warrant from another agency can mean another facility. Confirm with the official locator or the Jail Division.
No. The Anoka Police Department at 275 Harrison Street is the city's law-enforcement agency (763-576-2800). Anoka County Jail at 325 Jackson Street is run by the Anoka County Sheriff's Office (Jail Division 763-324-5100). They are separate agencies at separate addresses, even though both are in the city.
Use the county's official Inmate Locator. It covers the Jail and the separate Workhouse, plus releases from either facility in the past 30 days — so a listing doesn't always mean the person is still held. A very recent booking may not show yet.
The Jail Division is 763-324-5100. The Anoka County Workhouse, a separate facility for sentenced adults, is 763-324-4860. The Sheriff's administrative line, 763-324-5000, rings at headquarters in Andover — not at the jail.
In the Anoka County Courthouse, 2100 3rd Avenue, Anoka, MN 55303, part of Minnesota's Tenth Judicial District. Court Administration is 763-760-6700, Monday–Friday, 8:00 a.m.–4:30 p.m.
No. The courthouse in Anoka is Anoka County District Court, part of the state Judicial Branch, and it hears cases from across the county. Anoka City Hall at 2015 First Avenue is city administration — it is not a court and does not set bail.
For someone in custody, the Jail Division (763-324-5100) can say whether bail or conditions are on record. For court-case bail questions, call Court Administration (763-760-6700) or Court Bail & Bonds (763-760-6540) — that line is not an automatic phone-payment service. GPS can help you understand the answer but cannot set or change bail.
The premium follows the rate the surety has filed with Minnesota regulators under §60M.02, with a $100 minimum. There is no universal Minnesota percentage and no Anoka price list; the court sets the bail amount itself.
Sometimes. At least 50% of the premium is collected before posting on bonds of $10,000 or less (balance within four months), and at least 30% on larger bonds (within twelve months), with a signed promissory note. A payment arrangement is never guaranteed.
No. Some people are cited and released, and the court may release someone without money bail or on conditions only. A commercial bond is needed only when the court sets money bail and a surety bond is allowed.
A warrant, probation-related restriction or another agency's hold can keep someone in custody even after bail is posted on the Anoka case. GPS cannot remove a hold — ask the Jail Division which holds apply.
The responding agency depends on the exact location — Anoka Police within city limits, or the Minnesota State Patrol, the Sheriff's Office or a neighboring city's police on Highway 10 and nearby roads. The Mississippi River separates Anoka from Champlin in Hennepin County, so a stop across the river can involve a different county's jail and court. Confirm the arresting agency first.
Anything you know: full legal name, date of birth or approximate age, where in Anoka it happened, the arresting agency, and any booking, charge, court or bail details. Gaps are fine — you don't need a booking number to ask for help.
