Rutherford County Detention Center, NC

Rutherford County Detention Center offers video visitation every day from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM. You must schedule at least 24 hours in advance. For a free option, use the video terminal in the Magistrates Lobby. Both you and the inmate can use this at no cost. Remote visits through Securus are also available, but mobile and app sessions are paid by the visitor. Register and schedule through the Securus website or app before your session. Clergy visits work differently: contact the Detention Center Chaplain, Pastor Jerome Wilkerson, for scheduling and clearance. Confirm any visitor approval requirements before booking.

Rutherford County Detention Center uses Securus Video Visitation. Inmates connect with family and friends using tablets provided in their housing units. To schedule a video visit, register through the Securus website or mobile app first. Mobile video visits are paid by you, not the facility, so add funds through the Securus portal or app if needed. Securus Video Connect is web-based, meaning you can schedule and join visits from the free Securus app, a computer, or a tablet. Your Securus account also lets you send messages, photos, eCards for birthdays and holidays, and short video clips.

Rutherford County Detention Center uses Team3.InmateCanteen.com for online commissary deposits. Use the site for web or mobile payments and follow the vendor's instructions carefully. Commissary runs weekly, with orders placed Thursday after 2:00 a.m. Deposits made close to that cutoff may not process in time for the next order. Depending on what the vendor supports in North Carolina, you might also find phone deposits or walk-in kiosk locations for cash. To avoid delays, enter the incarcerated person's full booked name and inmate or account number exactly as shown on booking records. Complete any required deposit slip or vendor form.
