Greenwood County Detention Center Visiting Hours

Two Ways to Visit, Both on Video

Onsite video visit. You come to the Law Enforcement Center at 528 Edgefield Street and talk with your loved one over the jail’s video system. It costs nothing and lasts 20 minutes. These visits happen only on the person’s assigned visitation day, during the hours they have free time.

Remote video visit. You talk from your own phone or computer instead of driving in. InmateSales lists this as an at-home video visit for Greenwood County, and you load a prepaid balance of $1 to $100 on your account before you schedule it.

Either way, the visit is recorded and can be monitored. By joining, you agree to that recording.

Visit Limits

Each incarcerated person can have 1 visit per day and 2 visits per week. If two family members want to see the same person in one week, plan together so neither of you gets turned away because the weekly limit is already used.

Visitation is a privilege at this jail. Someone who becomes a discipline problem or a security risk can lose visits, and visits can be canceled without notice in an emergency.

Before You Drive In for an Onsite Visit

ID. Every visitor needs a state or government photo ID. A driver’s license, foreign ID or passport all work.

Dress code. Wear a shirt and shoes. These are not allowed:

• Low-cut blouses or tank tops
• Short skirts or short dresses
• Tight shorts
• Hats
• Any other revealing clothing

What you can carry in. Only your photo ID and a set of keys, unless the jail allows something else. Plan to leave your phone, bag and anything else behind.

Search. Expect a pat-down before you enter the visiting area. If you refuse it, you won’t be allowed to visit.

In the visiting area. No smoking, food or drinks.

Bringing Children

Anyone under 17 has to come with an adult, and children must be watched the whole time.

What Can End a Visit Early

The jail applies its non-contact visiting rules to video visits too. Lewd, profane or otherwise inappropriate behavior can cost you, your loved one, or both of you video visiting privileges. Any disruptive behavior by a visitor can end the visit and lead to losing visiting privileges.
