The 312-bed Rutherford County Workhouse allows non-violent inmates to work throughout the county, saving a little money for when they get released, and saving the county money because their hourly wage is so low.
It is called the Community Service Crew Programs. Inmates at the Rutherford County Correctional Work Center provide many hours of community services to the county and towns and cities in the county.
After being arrested, the offender is brought to the Rutherford County Workhouse for booking, which is the detailed process of identifying, classifying, deciding on charges, and whether the person will either be released on their own recognizance, allowed to be released on bail, or moved into the jail until their court date.
The first thing every newly arrested person must do is close their mouth. Everything an offender says may be used against them, so the best thing to do is remain silent when questioned about the arrest and what led to it.
These are the steps of booking someone into the Rutherford County Workhouse:
Booking can take as little as an hour, or up to 48 hours on a busy weekend or holiday evening, or if the offender is violent, wasted or generally uncooperative. If you have any questions about when you can pay an offender's bond and what the cost will be, call the facility at 615-898-7847.

2. The offender is ordered to remain in jail until their court date.
3. The offender is allowed to be released after paying a specified bond or bail. Call 615-898-7847 to get the exact amount.
