Orchards Booking Overview
Clark County Sheriff in Orchards
The Clark County Sheriff's Office covers Orchards the same way it covers other unincorporated parts of the county.

The non-emergency line is (360) 397-2211. Dial 911 for a live call.
Orchards sits right next to the city of Vancouver, and the two share roads, schools, and a lot of the same services.

The person goes straight to the county jail intake.

Clark County Jail 24 Hour Booking
The Clark County Jail current inmate list is the public 24 hour booking roster for Orchards and the rest of the county. The jail houses more than 650 people and runs intake 24 hours a day. Each entry on the list shows the name, booking date, charges, and custody status. The list updates through the day, so new bookings show fast.
The inmate list is the right place to start for any new Orchards arrest. Use a last name first, then narrow by date.
Under RCW 70.48.100, the jail keeps a public register of each booking. The register lists the name, the date of admission, the reason for the hold, and the legal basis. Clark County pulls its inmate list straight from that register. The jail follows Washington State jail standards for intake, classification, and release.
Note: Bail info and first court dates for new Clark County bookings usually post within a few hours of the booking.
How to Search an Orchards Arrest
Start on the Clark County inmate list. Type a last name. Scroll the booking dates. Look for the Orchards address or an arresting agency of the Sheriff's Office. The roster shows charges and the current location of the person.
Common search details you will want:
- Full or partial name
- Approximate booking date
- Arresting agency or case number
- Any known aliases
If the name is not on the list, the person may have posted bail, been cited and released, or moved to another facility. The next step is the court file. The Odyssey Portal and the Washington Courts case search both show new criminal filings. Orchards felonies go to Clark County Superior Court. Misdemeanors go to Clark County District Court or the local court that has venue.
Public Records for Orchards Bookings
If the live roster does not show what you need, file a public records request with the Clark County Sheriff's Office. The request goes through the Sheriff's records staff under RCW 42.56, the Washington Public Records Act. Fees are small. The office must respond within five business days with a plan.
Keep the request short. List the date, the person, and the type of record. Ask for the jail register entries that match. The Sheriff will release the public parts of the register and flag any file that is exempt under state law. The Attorney General's Open Government Resource Manual explains the process and the common exemptions.
