 Detention Center - Inmate Information

Communications

  • Inmates are encouraged to maintain ties with family members and friends. They may use the U.S. Postal Service to send and receive correspondence. When sending mail make sure the inmate's name is written on the correspondence.

  • We do not accept packages for inmates.

  • Inmates assigned to the general population housing units will have access to telephones periodically each day. The inmate telephone system is programmed for outgoing collect calls only.

  • Inmates cannot receive incoming telephone calls and staff cannot pass notes or messages to the inmates.

  • During the initial phase of the processing procedure, each inmate shall be afforded the opportunity to make telephone calls.

  • The inmate telephone system is programmed for out-going collect calls only.

    Prior to accepting a call you can listen to the prompts and you can obtain a quote for the call.

    If you have questions regarding this service or problems receiving calls from the center please call 1-800-844-6591. (Prices may change.)

  • Inmate correspondence (incoming and outgoing mail) may be opened and examined if deemed appropriate according to South Carolina Minimum Standards #2032.
