Monthly Property Packages for Greene Correctional: What You Can Order and How to Check Device Compatibility

North Carolina runs a statewide property package program for people incarcerated in the Department of Public Safety – Division of Adult Correction. Greene Correctional is part of this system. You can place a Monthly Property Package order for your loved one, and there's also a Seasonal Package option - handy if you're planning around holidays.

Ordering something your loved one can't keep is an easy way to waste money. Footwear is a common pitfall: incarcerated individuals can only possess one pair of work boots, one pair of tennis shoes, and one pair of shower shoes at any time. Order a duplicate, and it creates problems.

Rechargeable electronics are the other "double-check first" category. Even if an item appears in the statewide program, some North Carolina prisons lack the infrastructure to support rechargeable devices. That means a device could arrive but sit unusable because there's no way to charge it.

The responsibility falls on you to confirm that anything you purchase will actually work at Greene Correctional. Don't just check whether an item can be ordered - verify it can be used once it arrives. A quick call or message before you spend money can save real headaches later.

Checklist Electronics

• ✓ Confirm Greene Correctional can support the use of the specific rechargeable device you’re buying (including charging access).
• ✓ Ask what “compatible” means for that item at the facility - what conditions or restrictions could affect whether it can be used.
• ✓ Verify whether the device requires a specific charger or accessory to work in practice, and whether that setup is allowed and usable at the facility.
• ✓ Check whether there are any restrictions tied to the model or type of rechargeable device you’re ordering for that facility.
• ✓ Keep your receipt and order confirmation so you have the details handy if you need to address an incompatibility issue.

Worried about ordering electronics that end up unusable? Check the return policy before you buy. Whether you're ordering a Monthly Property Package or a Seasonal Package, save your order details and review the vendor's refund terms. Know your options upfront in case something doesn't work out.

1. Contact Greene Correctional before you buy - ask whether the facility can support rechargeable electronic devices and whether there are any conditions that affect use.
2. Confirm the item is appropriate for that facility - double-check that what you’re ordering matches the facility’s specific restrictions and conditions.
3. Write down what you’re told - note the date, who you spoke with (if provided), and the key answers so you can refer back if there’s a problem later.
