Christian County Jail's Postcard‑Only Mail Policy: What You Can (and Can't) Send
Sending mail to someone at Christian County Jail? Plan on using a plain postcard. Letters in envelopes and most other formats won't make it through.
Christian County Jail is a postcard-only facility for all incoming and outgoing inmate mail. If you want your message delivered, it needs to be written on a postcard rather than sent as a letter in an envelope.
Postcard-specs
- ✓ Use a standard white postcard
- ✓ Keep it at 5 inches by 7 inches or smaller
- ✓ Do not send photographs
- ✓ Do not use index cards
Stick to the exact postcard format the jail allows. Photos sent as "mail" won't be accepted. Neither will messages written on index cards instead of standard white postcards.
No money through the mail: Christian County Jail won't accept cash or monetary items mailed for inmate trust fund deposits. Mailed money gets returned to sender. Use the lobby kiosk, inmatedeposits.com, or homewave.com instead.
Postcards are photocopied front and back at Christian County Jail. Your loved one receives the photocopy, not the original card. The original goes into their property bin until release. Keep that in mind before sending anything you'd want them to have right away.
No mail delivery on weekends or holidays. If you send something close to either, expect delays even if the postcard arrives at the jail quickly.
