Overview
Lynchburg Detention Center asks families not to send money, clothing, hygiene items, or food. The facility provides detainees' personal care needs. Instead of mailing items, plan to pick up the person's property promptly after release. For eligible city transactions, the City's QuickPayments site offers two options: credit-card payments (fees apply) and eCheck payments (no fees). Parents are listed as financially responsible for emergency medical care and prescription costs. If you need to add funds to an inmate account, Virginia facilities commonly use third-party online portals, lobby kiosks or ATMs, phone deposits, or mailed certified money orders.
