Before Your First Visit to Danville City Jail: A Practical Checklist
Your first visit goes smoother when you bring the right ID, leave prohibited items behind, and arrive with time to spare for check-in.
Bring a valid photo ID every time. Staff check it at each visit - prior approval doesn't get you through the door without one. A current driver's license works, as does any government-issued photo ID that isn't expired.
Items
- ✓ Weapons
- ✓ Illegal drugs
- ✓ Alcohol
- ✓ Cameras
- ✓ Cell phones
- ✓ Other electronic items
Plan around the inmate's assigned slot. Danville City Jail gives each inmate a 30-minute visitation window, and they're responsible for telling you when it is. Arrive about 10 minutes early to complete processing - showing up right at start time can put you behind.
Rules
- ✓ Expect to be searched - all visitors are subject to search.
- ✓ Don’t smoke during visitation - smoking isn’t permitted.
You can bring money for the person you're visiting, but only if you're on their approved visitation list. Double-check your status before bringing cash - without list approval, you may not be allowed to deposit funds.
