How to Address Mail to an Inmate at Beaver County Jail (Exact Format & Return-Address Rules)
One small formatting mistake can delay your letter or get it held. Here's the exact address format and return-address rules for mailing someone at Beaver County Jail.
Use this exact line-by-line format on the envelope: Inmate’s Name (#####) P.O. Box 391 Beaver, UT 84713 Put the inmate’s name first, and include the booking number in parentheses on that same first line.
Use the mailing address (the P.O. Box) for inmate mail, not the street address. The mailing address is P.O. Box 391, Beaver, UT 84713. The jail's physical location is 2270 South Sheriff Dale E. Nelson Drive, Beaver, UT 84713. The facility's fax number is (435) 438-6485, included here only for reference. It's not where you send letters.
Envelope Rules
- ✓ Use an envelope no larger than a standard #10 envelope.
- ✓ Do not send mail in larger-than-#10 envelopes.
- ✓ Write your complete name on the outside of the envelope.
- ✓ Write your full return address on the outside of the envelope.
Note: Stick-on return-address labels are not allowed. Write or print the return address directly on the envelope.
Skip the return address and your letter won't be handled like normal mail. Beaver County Jail places envelopes with no return address into the inmate's property for 30 days. After that, the mail is either destroyed or must be sent out.
Even if you put your return address on the envelope, write it inside the letter too. Beaver County Jail does not give inmates the envelopes, so the person you're writing to won't see (or be able to save) your address unless it's in the body of the letter. This also protects you if something goes wrong with the outer envelope. Mail without a return address gets held in the inmate's property for 30 days, then it's either destroyed or has to be sent out.
Quick Checklist
- ✓ Address it as: Inmate’s Name (#####), then P.O. Box 391, Beaver, UT 84713.
- ✓ Use an envelope no larger than a standard #10.
- ✓ Put your complete name and full return address on the outside of the envelope.
- ✓ Do not use stick-on return-address labels.
- ✓ Write your return address inside the letter too (envelopes are not given to inmates).
- ✓ If you forget the return address, the mail is placed in the inmate’s property for 30 days, then it is either destroyed or must be sent out.
- ✓ Before mailing, review the jail’s full inmate-mail rules for other content restrictions.
