How to Send Money to Estes Unit, TX (TX)
Sending money to someone at the Estes Unit is straightforward once you have the right paperwork in hand.
When sending a money order or cashier's check to the Inmate Trust Fund, you'll need to include an inmate deposit slip with your payment. The inmate can get this slip on their end, so ask your loved one to mail it to you (or at least share the information from it) before you send anything.
Note: Trust Fund staff will not share an inmate's account activity or balance with anyone except the inmate. Your loved one will need to confirm deposit details from their side.
Steps to Follow
- ✓ Get the inmate deposit slip from your loved one.
- ✓ Purchase a money order or cashier’s check.
- ✓ Include the deposit slip with the money order or cashier’s check.
- ✓ Send the payment and deposit slip to the Inmate Trust Fund (not to the inmate personally).
Tip: Keep your receipt and a copy of everything you send. Staff cannot release balance or account activity details to you, so your proof of payment is your only backup if you need to follow up on whether a deposit went through.
Before mailing any funds, double-check the exact recipient line and mailing address for the Inmate Trust Fund. Make sure you have the correct inmate deposit slip for your loved one, and verify any required formatting on the payment so it gets credited properly. One thing to keep in mind: if you have questions after sending, Trust Fund staff can help with receipt inquiries, but they cannot share the inmate's account balance or activity with anyone except the inmate.
