Who to Call When You Have Questions About Hill-Finklea Detention Center

For most questions, start with the Hill-Finklea Detention Center main line at 843-719-4546. It's staffed 24 hours a day and handles general detention center matters.

If your question is about making an internet deposit to an inmate's account, that service is handled by McDaniel Supply Company - not the detention center. The facility doesn't control or monitor internet deposits, so deposit-related issues go through the vendor.

One common frustration: you need specific details before you can send money online. For Hill-Finklea deposits, you must have the inmate's name, housing location, and ID number. The detention center won't provide this information over the phone. Since the deposit system is run by McDaniel Supply Company and not the facility, you'll need to get those details directly from the inmate.
