Anderson County Detention Center

Anderson County Detention Center follows Tennessee's visitor approval process. You'll need to complete the Visitor Application (CR‑2152), attach a current photograph, and list a street address (not a P.O. Box). Submit the application to the facility's visiting office or the designated official for processing. Expect an NCIC background check, and plan for about 30 days of processing time. Once approved, you're added to the offender-management system and can schedule visits through the facility's scheduling system, typically an on-site kiosk or vendor portal. Staff may change or cancel visits at their discretion. For questions, contact the Anderson County Sheriff's Office at 101 South Main Street, Clinton, TN.

Inmate telephone and video services at Anderson County Detention Center run through City TeleCoin. The company reports that field service technicians, programmers, and system engineers are on-call 24/7 to support those systems. In most Tennessee facilities, calls are outbound-only and commonly monitored and recorded. Confirm whether Anderson County allows inbound calls before expecting someone to call you back directly. To get set up, register with City TeleCoin through their portal, app, or a lobby kiosk. Fund your account before any scheduled call or video visit, since the exact steps can vary. Also, the incarcerated person typically controls an approved-caller list, so make sure your number has been added.

There are several ways to add funds for someone at Anderson County Detention Center: in-person kiosks, online portals or mobile apps, automated phone systems, or certain trustee/tax office channels, depending on what the facility and its vendor offer. Money typically goes into a commissary or trust account for purchases, while phone and video visit credits may run through separate, vendor-managed accounts. Third-party processors handle most electronic deposits, and any convenience or processing fees are shown during checkout. To make a deposit, look up the incarcerated person by their full name plus a facility identifier (like an ID number or birthdate), enter your payment details, and confirm the amount. Some deposits post right away. Others take 1 to 2 business days. Keep your receipt and contact the facility if the funds don't appear. The County Trustee office handles county funds, accounting, and disbursements for county business.
