How to visit, scheduling, dress code, and visitor requirements
Planning a visit connected to Pittsylvania County Jail? Start by timing any custody, visitation, or support paperwork for weekdays—that's when these matters are handled. The Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court runs Monday–Friday, 8:00 am to 4:00 pm, which affects scheduling for juvenile-related visits or court needs. Virginia facilities commonly offer both in-person and video visits, but availability, visit length, and contact visit policies depend on the specific location. Video visits typically require at least 24 hours advance booking, with some systems allowing reservations up to two weeks out. In-person scheduling windows vary. You'll need to register and get approved beforehand, bring a valid government-issued photo ID matching your application, and follow the facility's dress and conduct rules.
