How to Send Money to Cecil County Detention, MD (MD)
Sending commissary money to someone at Cecil County Detention Center is pretty simple once you know which deposit method to use. Here's what works, what won't be accepted, and how to avoid delays.
Inmates at Cecil County Detention Center can spend up to $75 per week at commissary. The facility uses Keefe Commissary Network for commissary purchases, so your goal is getting money into the inmate's commissary account through one of the approved deposit options.
Cecil County Detention uses Access Secure Deposits for commissary funds. You have a few options: deposit at an Access Secure Deposits kiosk during normal business hours (Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 4 PM), use the lobby kiosk during visiting hours, deposit online through the facility's listed deposit website, or call 866-345-1884 to deposit by phone. One thing to keep in mind: the detention center administration will not accept money orders, checks, or any form of money in person for commissary or other funds.
Steps to Follow
- ✓ Deposit at an Access Secure Deposits kiosk during normal business hours (Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 4 PM)
- ✓ Deposit at the lobby kiosk during visiting hours
- ✓ Deposit online through the deposit website the detention center lists for Access Secure Deposits
- ✓ Deposit by phone at 866-345-1884
- ✓ Do not bring money orders, checks, or cash to hand in to administration, in-person payments are not accepted for commissary or other funds
Note: Inmates can only spend up to $75 per week at commissary. If you deposit more than that, the extra funds won't be usable all at once for commissary purchases.
The kiosk is one of the easiest ways to add money, but it's also the most likely to be affected by day-to-day operations. Before making the trip, confirm the Access Secure Deposits kiosk hours (listed as Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 4 PM). Also double-check that the lobby kiosk is still available during visiting hours.
Depositing online or by phone (866-345-1884)? Take a minute to confirm the current instructions before submitting payment. Have the inmate's identifying information ready and follow the prompts for Cecil County Detention so the deposit lands in the right account.
Policies can shift, especially around vendors and payment handling. Before sending money, verify three things: the $75-per-week commissary spending limit is still in effect, commissary still runs through Keefe Commissary Network, and administration still does not accept money orders, checks, or in-person payments for commissary.
