Sending a Food Package to Someone at Clayton County CI: Union Supply Step-by-Step
Want to send a food package to someone at Clayton County Correctional Institution? The Georgia Department of Corrections lets Union Supply handle food-package orders for State Prisons. Here's how to place an order—and what limits apply so your package doesn't get held up.
Clayton County CI is part of the Georgia Department of Corrections (GDC) program that partners with Union Supply for food packages. You can use Union Supply to send food items to someone housed there.
To order by mail, send your completed form to: Union Supply, 2500 Regent Blvd Dept. 421, P.O. Box 619059, Dallas, TX 75261-9059. Before sealing the envelope, double-check that everything is legible and matches the incarcerated person's details exactly - errors can delay processing.
Prefer to order by phone? Call 1-562-361-5719, or use the toll-free number: 1-855-247-0563. Phone orders are a good option if you're worried about handwriting issues or a mailed form arriving too close to a deadline.
You can also fax your order to 1-310-603-1188. Make sure the form is fully completed and easy to read - faint pages, cut-off text, or missing details can slow things down.
Union Supply charges a $2.95 shipping and handling fee on all orders. This fee is non-refundable, so double-check everything before you submit.
For State Prisons and Integrated Treatment Facilities (ITFs), GDC caps packages at $100 per offender or 15 lbs. - whichever you hit first. You can't exceed $100 even if the weight is under 15 lbs., and you can't exceed 15 lbs. even if the total is under $100.
Probation Detention Centers have tighter limits: $50 per offender or 7 lbs. per package, whichever comes first. If you're sending to a different GDC facility, check the rules for that facility type.
Placing multiple orders? They may be combined into one package - and the combined total still can't exceed GDC limits. For Clayton County CI, that means $100 per offender or 15 lbs., whichever is reached first.
Note: Orders received after the deadline won't be accepted. Cutting it close? Phone or fax can get your order in faster than mail.
