Kerr County Jail Commissary: Weekly Ordering Schedule, Deadlines, and Indigent Supplies
Timing a deposit so your loved one can shop commissary? The Kerr County Jail schedule is simple, but the cutoff comes fast. Here's how the weekly order cycle works, what indigent inmates receive, and what you can't send from home.
At Kerr County Jail, inmates can place a commissary order once per week. That weekly limit matters when you’re planning deposits, because missing the cutoff usually means waiting until the next week’s order.
Commissary orders are placed on Tuesdays. Think of Tuesday as decision day - whatever funds are available by then is what your loved one has to work with for that week's order.
Orders arrive on Thursdays. Place an order Tuesday, items typically reach the inmate by Thursday.
Sending a money order? Kerr County Jail's deadline is firm: it must arrive before 12:00 noon on Monday to count toward Tuesday's commissary order. Anything that shows up after that cutoff won't make the current week's cycle.
Tip: Aim to have your money order arrive well before Monday at noon. Miss that window, and the funds won't be available until the following Tuesday - pushing commissary back a full week.

Note: This indigent supply list can help you decide whether to add commissary funds for extras beyond the basics. Keep in mind that Kerr County Jail only shares account balance information with the inmate, so your loved one will need to confirm what's available.
Kerr County Jail doesn't accept outside packages. If you try to mail in goods from home, expect them to be rejected - not delivered.
Account privacy is strict: balances are only shared with the inmate. If you need to know whether they have enough for this week's order, coordinate directly with your loved one - the jail won't release balance information to you.
