How to send messages, photos, and packages
Sending mail to someone at John J. Benoit Detention Center is straightforward once you know the rules. Books, magazines, and periodicals must be prepaid and shipped through the United States Postal Service only. All incoming mail gets inspected for contraband. Legal mail receives special handling and isn't read during these checks. If you're mailing money, use a U.S. Postal Money Order with the inmate's name and booking number written clearly on the front—cash and personal checks will be returned. You can also add funds through other methods: online, by phone, or at lobby kiosks through third-party vendors.
