How to Order Food Packages Through Union Supply for Someone at Burrus County Transitional Center
Approved family and friends can order food packages through Union Supply for people housed at participating Georgia Department of Corrections (GDC) facilities. Orders go through Union Supply directly - not the facility itself.
To order by mail, send your completed form to: Union Supply, 2500 Regent Blvd, Dept. 421, P.O. Box 619059, Dallas, TX 75261-9059. Mail orders take longer, so plan ahead to make sure yours arrives before the program deadline.
Prefer to order by phone? Call Union Supply at 1-562-361-5719, or use the toll-free number: 1-855-247-0563. Phone orders are the fastest way to make sure your order gets through quickly.
Fax is another option. Send your order to 1-310-603-1188 - just double-check that everything on the form is legible before you send it.
You can order online through the Georgia Inmate Package website, where you'll also find downloadable order forms. These forms list pre-approved items, so you won't accidentally pick something that gets rejected.
Deadline reminder: Any Union Supply order received after the program deadline will not be accepted. Order early enough that your order is received on time, especially if you’re mailing it.
Package limits vary by facility type. For State Prisons and Integrated Treatment Facilities (ITFs), the cap is $100 per offender or 15 lbs per package - whichever you hit first.
Probation Detention Centers have stricter limits: $50 per offender or 7 lbs per package. If you're unsure which type of facility your loved one is at, keep both caps in mind when building your order.
Here's something that catches people off guard: multiple orders for the same person get combined into one package. That consolidated package still can't exceed the spending or weight limits - so splitting your order into smaller ones won't help you get around the cap.
Shipping fee: Union Supply adds a $2.95 shipping and handling charge to all orders, and those shipping charges are non-refundable.
Practical Checklist
- ✓ Confirm you’re an approved family member/friend for the GDC Union Supply program before you place an order.
- ✓ Choose how you’ll order (online, mail, phone, or fax) and give yourself enough time for the order to be received before the deadline.
- ✓ Keep your total within the correct cap for the facility type ($100 or 15 lbs for State Prisons/ITFs; $50 or 7 lbs for Probation Detention Centers).
- ✓ Remember the $2.95 shipping and handling fee, and plan for it to be non-refundable.
