Ironwood State Prison (ISP)

Check Ironwood State Prison's official visitation page first to see which visit types are available—in-person or video—and whether you need to schedule through an online portal. Sign-up windows and rules vary by location. If a portal is required, you'll claim or create an account, sign in with your Visitor ID or email, and book an available time slot from your computer or phone. The process typically involves selecting your visit type and time, completing any visitor questionnaires, and making sure the incarcerated person has added you to their approved visiting list. On visit day, bring a valid, unexpired government photo ID. Expect screening at the gate, which may include background checks. If video visits are offered, confirm the technical requirements and booking details ahead of time—remote and on-site services often work differently.

For general questions and custody or location help at Ironwood State Prison, call (760) 921-3000. The facility's physical address is 19005 Wiley's Well Road, Blythe, CA 92225—confirm the correct housing unit before planning a visit or sending mail. When you call, have the incarcerated person's full name (including any known aliases) plus their date of birth or booking/ID number ready. This helps staff locate records faster. For records or property requests, follow the Records Unit's submission rules and be prepared to show a government-issued photo ID. If your issue can't be resolved locally, state-level or system offices may offer escalation paths for records, subpoenas, or vendor questions.
