Boone County Jail's Postcard-Only Mail Policy: What to Send and How to Write It
If you want your mail to reach someone at Boone County Jail, keep it simple. The jail only accepts incoming mail on a plain, pre-stamped postal postcard. Small formatting choices can mean the difference between delivery and rejection.
Boone County Jail requires all incoming mail to be a Postal post card only. That means a plain, pre-stamped postcard you can buy at any post office. Letters, greeting cards, and other types of mail won't make it through. If you're unsure what to grab, ask for a pre-stamped postal postcard at the counter and write your message directly on it.
Heads up: Write your postcard in pen or pencil only. Anything written in marker, crayon, or similar materials will be returned to the sender.
Don't skip this: Include your full name and return address on the postcard. Boone County Jail says postcards missing either one may be destroyed.
Outgoing mail goes out daily except on Sundays and holidays. Incoming mail is delivered to the inmate the same day the jail receives it.
