Sending Food Packages to Someone at Bacon Probation Detention: The $50 / 7 lb Limit and How to Order

The Georgia Department of Corrections (GDC) partners with Union Supply to handle food packages for state facilities, including Probation Detention Centers like Bacon. You can't just mail in your own food - orders have to go through Union Supply's approved package program. This keeps your package compliant and ensures it actually gets delivered.

Need to confirm you've got the right facility? Bacon Probation Detention Center is located at 165 Eastside Industrial Boulevard, Alma, GA 31510.

Prefer ordering by mail? Send your Union Supply order to: Union Supply, 2500 Regent Blvd Dept. 421, P.O. Box 619059, Dallas, TX 75261-9059. Using the correct department and P.O. box prevents delays.

To order by phone, call 1-562-361-5719. There's also a toll-free number: 1-855-247-0563.

Fax is another option. Send Union Supply orders to 1-310-603-1188.

Pick whichever method works best for you - mail, phone, or fax. Online ordering is also available through the Georgia inmate package ordering site. Just stick to approved items and watch your totals so you don't hit the $50 / 7 lb cap.

Fees Deadlines Packaging

• ✓ A $2.95 shipping and handling charge applies to all Union Supply orders, and it’s non-refundable.
• ✓ Orders received after the program deadline won’t be accepted, so don’t wait until the last minute.
• ✓ If you place more than one order, they can be consolidated into one package - and the final package still can’t exceed $50 per offender or 7 lbs. (whichever comes first).

1. Start with the approved order form/items - Union Supply orders are based on items pre-approved by GDC, so build your package from that list.
2. Shop with the Probation Detention cap in mind - for Bacon, you’re limited to $50 or 7 lbs., whichever you reach first.
3. Use the person’s full name and GDC number - include your loved one’s full name and GDC number on anything you submit by mail so the order can be matched correctly.
4. If ordering by mail, use the exact Union Supply address - Union Supply, 2500 Regent Blvd Dept. 421, P.O. Box 619059, Dallas, TX 75261-9059.
5. Keep a copy of what you sent - whether you order by mail, phone, fax, or online, save your paperwork or confirmation details so you can reference the exact items and totals if there’s a question later.
