How to send messages, photos, and packages
Orangeburg County Detention Center offers in-person visits and remote video visits, all scheduled through the facility's visitation scheduling service. The portal supports visits from home and from facility stations, and it's free to use. Since a third-party vendor typically runs these systems, you'll create an account in their portal, complete identity verification, and handle scheduling, billing, and tech support there. Before booking, confirm the incarcerated person can receive remote visits and that your name appears on their approved visitor/contact list exactly as you'll register it. Most visits need to be scheduled ahead of time, and vendors often limit how long you have to modify or cancel.
