How to send messages, photos, and packages
Cherokee County Jail supports both video visits and telephone contact. Video or internet visits are limited to 30 minutes per session. Before you can schedule one, you'll need to register through the facility's Inmate Communication system. Most people set up an account with the jail's approved video-visit vendor or portal, then reserve a time and pay through that service. Inside the jail, on-site communications and incoming phone handling fall to the Control Panel Operator, who also manages entrance and exit electronics, video surveillance, intercoms, housing-area observation, and book-in processing. Keep in mind that vendor requirements, account rules, and fees vary. Phone or tablet services often require a separate account with prepaid funding before calls, messages, photos, or video sessions go through.
