In a life-threatening emergency, call 911. The numbers below are for non-emergencies only.

Greers Ferry, AR non-emergency police number

Agency main line
Greers Ferry Police Department
(501) 825-7172 Registry main line — not labelled non-emergency
Call (501) 825-7172

This is the agency's main published line from the federal law-enforcement registry (BJS census of state and local law-enforcement agencies). No number labelled “non-emergency” was found on the agency's own site, so treat this as the general business line. See Methodology.

Greers Ferry, AR had 821 residents at the 2020 Census and is served by the Greers Ferry Police Department, within Cleburne County. Use the number above for anything that is not an emergency; call 911 if anyone is in danger.

When to call 911 instead

Call 911 if any of this is true right now:

  • Someone is injured, unconscious, or threatening to hurt somebody.
  • A crime is in progress, or the suspect is still nearby.
  • There is a fire, a gas smell, or a crash with injuries or blocked traffic.
  • You are not sure. A dispatcher would rather triage one unnecessary 911 call than miss a real one.

Use the non-emergency number for things that have already finished and nobody is in danger:

  • A theft, burglary, or vandalism discovered after the fact, including when you need a report number for insurance.
  • A car blocking a driveway or hydrant, an abandoned vehicle, a parking complaint.
  • Noise, a loud party, fireworks, or a barking dog.
  • A minor collision with no injuries where the vehicles have been moved.
  • Found property, a follow-up on an existing case, or a general question for Greers Ferry Police Department.

Non-emergency lines are usually answered by the same communications centre as 911, but at a lower priority — expect to hold, and expect to be asked whether anyone is in danger.

311 and 211

311 is for city services rather than policing — potholes, missed collections, street lights, parking, and in some cities non-emergency police reports. Where a city runs a 311 service, the page says so above.

211 is a free nationwide line for health and human services: housing, food, utility assistance, mental health, and crisis support. It is operated by local United Way and partner organisations and is available in most of the country by dialling 211 or through 211.org.

Questions about calling Greers Ferry police

What is the non-emergency police number for Greers Ferry, AR?

(501) 825-7172 is the main published line for Greers Ferry Police Department in the federal law-enforcement registry. Greers Ferry Police Department does not publish a separately labelled non-emergency number that we could confirm, so call this line during business hours and ask to be put through.

Can I call this number to report a crime that already happened in Greers Ferry?

Yes — that is what it is for. Have the address, the time, a description of what was taken or damaged, and any suspect or vehicle description ready. Ask for the case or report number before you hang up; insurers almost always want it.

Is the Greers Ferry non-emergency line answered 24 hours a day?

Most non-emergency lines ring into the same communications centre as 911 and are answered around the clock, but some ring a front desk that closes in the evening. If nobody answers and the matter is genuinely urgent, call 911.

What if the incident was outside Greers Ferry city limits?

Unincorporated parts of Cleburne County are covered by the sheriff's office. See the Cleburne County page.
