Bacon Probation Detention

All visits at Bacon Probation Detention are by appointment only—you can't just show up. First, submit the facility's Visitation Request Form to become an approved visitor. Once approved, use the visitation request form to book a specific time slot. Need to bring someone else along? Use the "Add Visitor" link to attach additional visitors to your scheduled appointment. Plans change? The cancel link lets you locate and cancel appointments online. Watch the deadlines closely: weekend visit requests must be in by 5:00 PM Wednesday of the same week. State-holiday requests? Submit by 5:00 PM three days before the holiday. The Georgia Department of Corrections can refuse, deny, suspend, or revoke visitation for contraband attempts, deceptive information on forms, repeated warnings, or special security concerns.

Bacon Probation Detention uses Securus for phone calls. To receive calls, set up a Securus pre-paid collect or direct-bill account online or by calling 1-800-844-6591. Get your account verified before you expect calls—otherwise you might miss them. One pre-paid collect account can cover multiple phone numbers. Offenders can also transfer money from their trust accounts into Securus debit calling accounts in $1 increments. Calls run $0.06 per minute, with a 25-minute call costing $1.50. Each call maxes out at 25 minutes. Keep in mind: calls may be monitored and recorded, three-way calling and call forwarding are prohibited, and calls only go through to numbers on the offender's Call Allow List.

Sending mail to someone at Bacon Probation Detention? Start by using the Georgia Department of Corrections "Find a Facility" tool to get the correct mailing address. On every envelope, include the inmate's full name and GDC/inmate number so it routes correctly. Food and care packages work differently—you can't mail them directly. Orders must go through Union Supply, the approved vendor. Mail orders to 2500 Regent Blvd Dept. 421, P.O. Box 619059, Dallas, TX 75261-9059, or use their phone/fax options. Every order includes a non-refundable $2.95 shipping and handling fee. Probation Detention Centers cap packages at $50 per offender or 7 lbs. per package, whichever comes first. Multiple orders may be consolidated, and late orders won't be accepted.

Putting money on someone's account at Bacon Probation Detention? Pre-paid collect deposits are capped at $200.00 per deposit, so larger amounts need to be split across multiple transactions. The facility lists funding fees as $0.00 per deposit when using IVR, website, live agent, check, or money order. Common deposit methods in Georgia include online transfers through third-party vendors, lobby kiosks/ATMs, mailed money orders (often with printable vouchers), and vendor commissary services—availability varies by facility. If you're mailing a money order or using a voucher, follow the required voucher and addressing details exactly to avoid delays. Two things to keep in mind: deposited funds may be applied to outstanding debts first, and you typically need to be on the recipient's approved sender/visitor list before you can send money.
