Bail Bond Questions — Italy

Where are people held after an arrest in Italy, Texas?
Italy does not operate a full-service jail. Individuals arrested in Italy on charges requiring a surety bond are transferred to the Ellis County Jail in Waxahachie for booking, magistration, and bond processing. The Italy Police Department handles initial contact and transport.
How long does the transfer from Italy to the Ellis County Jail take?
Italy is approximately 22 miles south of Waxahachie, so the physical transport takes around 30 minutes. However, total transfer time including processing paperwork can extend to several hours depending on arrest volume and staffing. Act Swift tracks this process and acts as soon as the booking is recorded.
Are bail bond rates different for Italy residents?
No. Texas bail bond premiums are standard across all cities within a county. Italy residents pay the same 10-15% of the bail amount as anyone else in Ellis County. Act Swift Bail Bonds also offers payment plans for families who need flexible options.
Can Act Swift travel to Italy for a bail bond consultation?
Absolutely. Our mobile bonding service covers all of Ellis County, including Italy. We can meet you at home, at the jail, or arrange a phone consultation. Distance is never a barrier — we serve Italy the same way we serve Waxahachie.
