Station Overview
San Dimas Station, established in 1927, is one of the oldest Sheriff's stations in the county — originally built to serve the fruit growers and poultry raisers of eastern Los Angeles County.
Today it serves the City of San Dimas directly, plus a wide unincorporated coverage area: Covina, Azusa, Glendora, La Verne, Claremont, Azusa Canyon, Mount Baldy, and a large portion of the Angeles National Forest.
Real detail: the areas this station polices — nearly 105,000 people in total — are overwhelmingly unincorporated, roughly 69,000, rather than inside San Dimas city limits itself, roughly 36,000. That is the opposite of how most contract stations are weighted, and it is why an arrest in a canyon or forest area with a Glendora or Azusa mailing address still lands here.
The station handles the arrest, the booking paperwork, and short-term holding. Nobody stays at a patrol station; bookings not resolved locally move into the county system downtown.

A patrol station is not a visiting facility. Once someone is in county custody, visits are scheduled through the Sheriff's Department system.
Most of this station's population lives outside San Dimas city limits, so a Glendora, Azusa, Covina, or Claremont mailing address does not automatically mean that city's police department has the case.
Forest and canyon arrests — Azusa Canyon, Mount Baldy, the Angeles National Forest — are county arrests handled from this station.
Transport downtown can leave sooner than expected, and station-level timing is never guaranteed. Call as soon as you know about the arrest — we work the station and the downtown facility at the same time.

Six real steps, from an arrest in San Dimas or the surrounding county territory to release.
Arrest In San Dimas Or Unincorporated Territory
San Dimas contracts with the Sheriff's Department, and the surrounding canyon, foothill, and forest areas are unincorporated county land. Both are county arrests from the first minute.
Booking On South Walnut Avenue
Identification, paperwork, and short-term holding happen at 270 S Walnut Ave. Call (909) 450-2700 to confirm someone is there.
Bail Set From The County Schedule
Bail comes off the Los Angeles County bail schedule at booking, so it is postable immediately rather than waiting for arraignment.
Post Before Transfer — The Fast Path
A bond posted while someone is still at the station skips the downtown intake queue entirely. This is consistently the fastest outcome available.
Transfer To The Inmate Reception Center
Unresolved bookings transport to 450 Bauchet Street for full county booking, medical screening, and classification.
Arraignment At Pomona Courthouse South
San Dimas cases are confirmed to Pomona Courthouse South, where a judge can adjust bail or grant own-recognizance release.
How To Post Bail Before County Transfer
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.
Timing is the whole game at a patrol station. Bail posted before the transport downtown ends the matter in hours; bail posted after has to wait for county intake, medical screening, and classification.
Nobody needs to drive to South Walnut Avenue or downtown. Paperwork, signatures, and payment are handled remotely, and the bond is posted wherever the defendant actually is.
Because the figure comes off the county schedule at booking, there is no reason to wait for a hearing — and a judge can still adjust it or grant own-recognizance release at arraignment.
Qualifying cosigners can start as low as 1% down on approved credit.
If A Court Date Is Missed After Release
A bond written for San Dimas Station 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.

Bail FAQs
How old is San Dimas Station?
It was established in 1927, making it one of the oldest Sheriff's stations in the county — originally built to serve the fruit growers and poultry raisers of eastern Los Angeles County.
My relative was arrested near Glendora or Azusa — is this the right station?
Possibly. Both cities run their own police departments, but the unincorporated land around them, including Azusa Canyon, is patrolled by this station. Most of the roughly 105,000 people in this coverage area — about 69,000 — live outside San Dimas city limits, so mailing addresses are a poor guide. Call us and we will find them.
Which courthouse hears a San Dimas case?
Pomona Courthouse South at 400 Civic Center Plaza, which holds confirmed jurisdiction over San Dimas as part of the same cluster as Pomona, Diamond Bar, and La Verne.
What about an arrest in the Angeles National Forest or Mount Baldy?
That is unincorporated county territory patrolled from this station, so the booking runs the same way as an arrest inside San Dimas itself.
Can I post bail at the station itself?
Yes, while the defendant is still there — and that is the fastest possible outcome, because it skips the downtown intake queue. Once transport leaves for the Inmate Reception Center, the bond is posted downtown instead.
