How to Send Money to Someone at Beaufort County Detention (Mail vs. Online)
Want to add funds to someone's account at Beaufort County Detention? You've got two options: mail a money order or cashier's check, or deposit online.
Beaufort County Detention accepts deposits two ways: by U.S. Mail (money order or cashier's check) or online through jailpackstore.com. Mailing gives you a paper trail for your records. The online option posts instantly, according to the facility - helpful when funds need to arrive fast. Which one works best? That depends on what's easier for you and how quickly the money needs to get there.
Note: Fees and exact posting times aren't published. If timing or costs matter, confirm details with the online vendor or the detention center before sending payment.
Mail Steps
- ✓ Send funds by U.S. Mail using money order or cashier’s check only (no personal checks or cash).
- ✓ Address the envelope using the facility’s format:
- ✓ Inmate Name #____
- ✓ Beaufort County Detention Center
- ✓ Pod (Housing Unit) #____
- ✓ P.O. Drawer 1228
- ✓ Beaufort SC 29901-1228
Questions about the mail-in option? Call the detention center at 843-255-5179. Have the inmate's name ready, and if you've already purchased a money order or cashier's check, keep your receipt or reference number handy so you can answer any follow-up questions quickly.
- Go to jailpackstore.com - this is the facility’s listed online deposit option.
- Create an account and log in - you’ll need an account to submit a deposit.
- Enter the inmate’s details when prompted - provide the inmate’s name and the inmate’s name number so the deposit is credited to the right person.
Don't know the inmate's name number? Call the detention center at 843-255-5208 and ask for it exactly as needed for the online deposit. Getting it right the first time saves you from having to redo the transaction.
If the online deposit isn't working - login trouble, payment errors, or the system won't accept the inmate information - contact McDaniel Supply Company at 912-427-9022. Have the inmate's name and name number ready, along with the payment details you used (or tried to use). This helps them track down the problem faster.
