How to send messages, photos, and packages
Phone access at Lynchburg Detention Center is limited. Each detainee gets an intake phone call and can make up to three outgoing calls per week. Personal incoming calls aren't allowed, and phone privileges may be restricted based on behavior. Need to arrange a professional visit (other than a Court Service Worker or attorney)? Call ahead to schedule and contact Administration for details. For video visits, tablet messaging, or other vendor-based services, first confirm which vendor the facility uses. Create a friends or family account with the approved provider, complete verification, set up your payment method, and contact the vendor directly for technical or billing questions.
