How to send messages, photos, and packages
Chilton County Jail uses Securus for both video visits and phone calls. For video, Securus Video Connect works through the free app, a computer, or a tablet—you'll need to register and follow their setup steps. Onsite and remote visits are available daily from 8:00 AM to 10:30 PM, though there's no visitation from 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM. Phone calls also go through Securus as collect, prepaid, or credit card calls. Expect calls to be monitored and recorded. Inmates place outgoing calls using assigned PIN numbers. To set up or fund an account, call 1-800-844-6591 and use facility code 5500. The jail can block numbers for harassment or misuse. Attempt a three-way call and the number gets permanently deactivated—plus the inmate faces disciplinary action.
