Mail & Photos to Dillon County Detention Center

The Mailing Address

Address your letter to:

[Inmate Name]
[Booking Number, if known]
Dillon County Detention Center
1027 Old Latta Highway
Dillon, SC 29536

Include your complete return address on the envelope. Most facilities, including county jails across South Carolina, open and inspect incoming mail before delivering it, though the specific inspection process for Dillon County Detention Center isn’t detailed on the county’s site.

What’s Never Allowed Anywhere

Regardless of what Dillon County’s specific policy turns out to be, some rules are universal across virtually every jail and prison: never mail cash directly to an inmate, and don’t include anything that looks like it could be a prohibited substance or contraband, since that risks the entire letter being rejected or destroyed, and can create legal trouble for the sender.

If Your Mail Doesn’t Seem to Be Getting Through

If you’ve sent something and it’s been more than two weeks with no acknowledgment, call the facility to check on it instead of assuming it was lost. Content that looks questionable for any reason can cause processing delays at any facility, and a phone call is the fastest way to find out if that’s what happened.
