Facility Overview
Culver City Police Department, founded in 1917, operates its own Type 1 jail facility with 30 beds at 4040 Duquesne Avenue.
The distinctive detail: this is a genuine holding facility, not just a booking-and-transfer point. A defendant booked here may be held locally rather than immediately moved into county custody — similar in spirit to the local custody programs at a small number of other independent-PD cities in this directory.
This is current, not historical: the department's own jail information page still lists the 30-bed Type 1 facility with active visitation hours, and the state Board of State and Community Corrections lists Culver City Jail as an open Type 1 facility on its January 2026 statewide list.
Because Culver City books locally, the Sheriff's county inmate locator can come back empty in the first hours after an arrest here. No county record exists until a transfer happens.

Emergencies

A Type 1 facility can hold defendants for a genuine local stay — but it is still not a county visiting facility, and visiting rules are set by the department.
Confirm the current status of the on-site holding program directly with Culver City PD before relying on it.
A county inmate search in the first hours after a Culver City arrest can legitimately come back empty.
A local hold is not guaranteed to stay local. If a transfer downtown is going to happen, it can happen quickly — call as soon as you know about the arrest.

What actually happens after a Culver City Police Department arrest.
Arrest By Culver City PD
Culver City has had its own police department since 1917, so the arrest, the report, and the booking all start with the city rather than the Sheriff's Department.
Booking At 4040 Duquesne Avenue
Identification, property, and paperwork happen at the department's own 30-bed facility.
Bail Set From The County Schedule
Even a city booking uses the Los Angeles County bail schedule, so a figure exists immediately and a bond can be posted without waiting for arraignment.
Local Hold At A Type 1 Facility
Because Culver City's is a genuine holding facility, a defendant may stay locally rather than transferring immediately — confirm which is happening before searching the county system.
Transfer To The Inmate Reception Center
If a transfer does happen, men route to 450 Bauchet Street downtown and women to the Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood.
Arraignment At The Airport Courthouse
Cases are heard at 11701 S. La Cienega Boulevard, where a judge can adjust bail or grant own-recognizance release.
How To Post Bail At The Culver City Jail
Premium on a California bail bond is set by the rate filed with the Department of Insurance under Cal. Ins. Code §1800. The starting bail figure comes from the Los Angeles Superior Court’s felony and misdemeanor bail schedule, adopted under Penal Code §1269b, and review or reduction of that figure runs under Penal Code §1270.1.
Posting while someone is still at the Duquesne Avenue facility is always the fastest path — it ends the matter locally and skips county intake entirely.
Nobody needs to drive to Culver City. Paperwork, signatures, and payment happen remotely, and we post the bond wherever the defendant actually is.
The premium is set by California law at 10 percent of the bail amount, and we write payment plans, no-collateral bonds, and no-money-down options against it.
Qualifying cosigners can start as low as 1% down on approved credit.
If A Court Date Is Missed After Release
A bond written for the Culver City jail stays live through every appearance until the case resolves. A missed date can mean a forfeited bond and a bench warrant the same day, with a limited statutory window to bring the defendant back before the forfeiture becomes a judgment against the cosigner.

Full Los Angeles County City DirectoryBail FAQs
Does Culver City really hold people locally?
Yes — the department operates a genuine 30-bed Type 1 holding facility, not just a booking desk, so a local stay is possible instead of an automatic county transfer. This is confirmed current: the facility is listed on the department's own jail page and on the state's January 2026 list of open facilities.
Which courthouse hears a Culver City case?
Most likely the Airport Courthouse at 11701 S. La Cienega Boulevard, (310) 727-6010 — the West District's criminal-only building. Culver City is not confirmed against an official jurisdiction listing, so confirm the courthouse printed on the notice to appear.
Why can't I find my relative in the county inmate locator?
Because the county system only shows people already booked into county custody. Someone held at the Culver City facility has no county record yet.
Can I post bail before a transfer to county jail?
Yes, and it is the fastest path. Bail is set from the county schedule immediately after booking, so a bond can be posted while the defendant is still at Duquesne Avenue.
