Moore, C. Unit in Bonham

Moore, C. Unit (Choice Moore Transfer Facility) in Bonham is a Texas Department of Criminal Justice transfer facility that opened in 1995 on the north side of town, just off FM 87. Known locally as the “C. Moore Unit,” it houses male offenders in minimum-security custody levels G1 and G2 while they await assignment to a permanent unit.

Like other TDCJ transfer facilities, Moore serves as a short-term intake hub: people typically remain for a few months while medical, physical, and psychological screenings are completed and classification is finalized.

The unit’s design reflects its mission, streamlined movement, program access, and coordination with nearby units. Over time, Moore has become a key piece of the Bonham-area correctional footprint alongside other TDCJ operations, providing local employment and supporting statewide inmate logistics. The facility’s rated capacity is 1,224 inmates, which helps TDCJ absorb intake spikes and maintain population flow across the system.

Visitation at the Moore, C. Unit follows TDCJ’s standard weekend schedule. According to the current TDCJ Unit Visitation Schedule, Choice Moore (listed as “C MOORE”) offers contact, regular, restricted, and video/tablet visitation on Saturdays and Sundays from 8:00 AM to 5:30 PM. As of the latest published schedule, the hours are:

  • Saturday: 8:00 AM – 5:30 PM
  • Sunday: 8:00 AM – 5:30 PM

Always confirm specific eligibility, identification requirements, and any temporary restrictions with TDCJ before traveling, as policies can change.
