How to Send Money to Someone at Daviess County Detention Center
Sending money to someone at Daviess County Detention Center is straightforward once you know your options. Follow the facility's rules, and your deposit should go through without delays.
A deposit kiosk is located in the Building 1 lobby. It accepts cash or credit card and is available 24 hours a day, so you can make a deposit even outside business hours.
Kiosk deposit limit: Credit card deposits at the kiosk are capped so the inmate's account balance cannot exceed $300.
Do not mail cash: Daviess County Detention Center does not allow cash to be sent through the mail.
The facility only accepts cashier's checks, certified checks, or money orders by mail. Make them payable to Daviess County Detention Center.
Write the inmate's name on the memo line. This helps staff match your payment to the correct account.
Include your full name and return address on the envelope. Mail without this information can cause delivery and processing problems.
Address mailed payments to: DCDC Attn: Bookkeeper 3337 Hwy 144 Owensboro, KY 42303
The facility has a strict rule on two-party checks: only government checks are accepted for deposits to inmate accounts.
Government checks must be payable to the incarcerated inmate and deposited in full. Partial deposits or splitting the amount is not allowed.
Fee deductions: If an inmate (including state and federal inmates) owes any fees, 50% of all deposits will be deducted and applied to those fees.
Using a credit card at the kiosk? Keep the $300 maximum account balance in mind. If the account is already near that limit, your deposit may not process as expected.
Allow time for deposits to post. Funds are usually available after a short delay, typically by the next day.
