Did you know the police department offers a safe exchange zone?

The exchange zone is a specific space in our public parking lot for community members to conduct private party transactions and safe custody exchanges at the Easley Police Department. The Easley Police Department is one of several law enforcement agencies now offering an exchange zone as a safer alternative to other meeting locations, such as a private residence or retail center parking lot.

Our exchange zone is located in a marked, well-lit parking space in front of the Easley Police Department and is recorded by video 24-hours a day. While video will record the area, the optimal transaction time of Monday-Friday, between 8:00 AM-5:00 PM (Department public lobby business hours), is recommended.

Availability is on a first come, first serve basis.

Police officers will not be present during transactions and video will not always be monitored in real time. Department employees will not get involved or actively monitor transactions and employees of the City of Easley will not be able to act as official witness, provide legal advice or settle civil disputes.

•Safety Tips•

•Only conduct transactions with local buyers/sellers.
•Insist on meeting in a public place.
•Do not invite strangers into your home, and do not go to theirs.
•Take your cell phone with you.
•If you are selling a large piece of furniture, move the piece to an open garage or front porch.
•Tell a friend or family member about your intentions. Tell them when and where and with whom you are meeting - if possible, bring them with you!
•Complete transactions during daylight hours.
•Be extra cautious in buying/selling valuable items.
•Only use cash or money orders.
•Trust your instincts and be cautious of scams.

Today, Monday, January 9, 2023, is National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day, dedicated to showing our support for law enforcement on the local, state, and federal levels.

Created in 2015, this day allows us to voice our appreciation to law enforcement officers for their service to us all.

When someone answers the call to serve and protect, they do more than that. They are often sacrificing sleep, holidays with loved ones, and potentially their life for the safety and security of their community.

The Pickens County Sheriff's Office is grateful for the brave men and women reporting to work each day, reaffirming the oath to which they solemnly swore.
