Sending money by mail? Address it to: Huron County Jail Attn: (Inmate Name) 120 S. Heisterman St. Bad Axe, MI 48413
Send a check or money order made payable to
Note: Before you mail anything, double-check you’ve written the inmate’s name the same way the jail has it on file and that your envelope is addressed exactly as shown.
If you’re dropping off money in person, bring the exact amount in cash. Huron County’s rule is strict: exact cash is required, with no exceptions.
No cash? You can write a check payable to “H.C.S.O.” instead. Don’t plan on paying with plastic - credit and debit cards aren’t accepted for this.
Note: Procedures can vary by day and staffing. Call ahead to confirm where to go, what hours drop-offs are handled, and any check-in steps you’ll need to follow.
Once funds hit the account, inmates can spend them at commissary. At Huron County Jail, calling cards are available for $10 each.
