How to Send Money to Irwin County Detention Center, GA (GA)

Irwin County Detention Center is required to have written procedures for incoming property and money. This means there's an official, facility-approved process for accepting and crediting funds, not an informal "drop it off and hope" situation.

If you're visiting, the facility must allow you to leave money for deposit into a detainee's account. You should receive a receipt when you do. Keep it. That receipt is your proof of the amount and date of your deposit.

The facility also has to post written visiting procedures, including the schedule and hours. Check these before you go. Even if you're just dropping off money, you'll want to avoid showing up when deposits aren't being accepted or access is restricted.

Steps to Follow

• ✓ Ask the facility for its written procedures on incoming money (and any related property rules) before you go.
• ✓ Bring the money you plan to leave for deposit and follow staff directions for where and how to hand it over.
• ✓ Get a receipt for the money you left at the facility, then keep it until you can confirm the deposit posted to the detainee’s account.

Before making the trip, confirm the current procedures for incoming property and money. Details vary by local policy and can change. Also check the visitation schedule, since these hours often affect when you can access the facility and what you can bring inside.
