Roberson County Jail, NC

Robeson County Jail isn't offering in-person visits right now. Instead, visitation happens through Smart Mail kiosks and the SmartJailMail video service. Each inmate gets one free 15-minute kiosk visit per week, with additional video visits scheduled through SmartJailMail. Check the facility's current rules before trying to set anything up—formats, availability, and eligibility can change. If in-person visits return, you'll typically need to be on the incarcerated person's approved visitor list and may need to complete a visitor application.

Roberson County Jail uses a third-party vendor for communication. SmartInmate by Smart Communications handles online messaging and tablet services—you'll need to create an account before you can message or use other features. For video visits, schedule through SmartJailMail at https://www.smartjailmail.com. Both you and the person in custody typically need accounts and must complete approval steps before a video visit can begin. For operational or safety-related requests in the community, contact the sheriff's office phone lines.

Robeson County Jail offers three ways to deposit funds: an ATM in the jail lobby (cash or credit; fees apply), online deposits through McDaniel Supply's JailPackStore, and accepted money orders. JailPackStore lets family and friends create an account to add funds and access commissary services. When paying online, don't hit the back button or close the window while the transaction processes. For any deposit method, enter the incarcerated person's booked name and ID exactly as shown so funds post correctly. One note: facility information conflicts on the ATM—one source mentions a lobby ATM, while another says there's no ATM on the premises.

North Carolina's Offender Public Information Search covers people in state custody and supervision—state prison inmates, probationers, and parolees. Search by name or offender ID, and narrow results with filters like status, gender, race/ethnicity, birth date, and age range. Name searches may also match common variations to help you find the right person. This is a state-level database, so it doesn't include county jail listings. To find someone at Roberson County Jail, check the inmate roster on the local sheriff's website. For sex-offender information, the NC SBI maintains the statewide Sex Offender Registry, and victims can sign up for phone notifications about status changes through VINElink.
