Greenville County Detention Center Inmate Communication Overview
The Greenville County Detention Center is the county jail in Greenville, South Carolina, operated by the Greenville County Sheriff's Office. Located on McGee Street in downtown Greenville, it houses pretrial and sentenced inmates from across Greenville County in multiple housing buildings.
The detention center contracts with Securus for inmate telephone services and video visitation. Families set up Securus accounts to receive phone calls and to schedule video visits, which can be held at the jail's visitation area or remotely from home. Visitors must be on the inmate's approved list.
Video visits are the primary visit option, with in-person non-contact and contact visits available depending on policy. All calls and video visits are monitored and recorded. Families should confirm current messaging options on the sheriff's website before funding accounts.
