Lawrence County Jail Commissary Schedule: When to Order and When Items Are Delivered

Commissary ordering at Lawrence County Jail opens at 12:00 a.m. Tuesday and closes at lights out on Wednesday. That's it - a two-day window each week. Miss it, and you're waiting until the next cycle.

Note: The ordering window runs from 12:00 a.m. Tuesday through lights out Wednesday, so waiting until late Wednesday can mean missing the cutoff.

Orders are delivered on Friday. During holiday weeks, the jail posts advance notice if the delivery day shifts. Expect Friday delivery unless you've been told otherwise.

  • Confirm the order is being attempted during the normal window (12:00 a.m. Tuesday through lights out Wednesday)
  • Make sure funds are available/posted before trying to submit the order

Plan backward from the order window. Ordering runs from 12:00 a.m. Tuesday through lights out Wednesday, so any money you're depositing should be available before Tuesday. Once an order goes through during that window, delivery is normally Friday - good to know if you're trying to time when items will actually arrive.

  1. Plan for funds to be available before Tuesday - ordering normally opens at 12:00 a.m. Tuesday.
  2. Place the order during the open window - ordering is normally available Tuesday through lights out Wednesday.
  3. Report ordering problems immediately - submit a Request to “Commissary – Melissa” before 6:00 p.m. Wednesday.
  4. Look for delivery on Friday - that’s the regular delivery day for commissary orders.

Reminder: If ordering doesn’t work, the deadline to submit a Request to “Commissary – Melissa” is 6:00 p.m. Wednesday - waiting past that can mean missing the week’s Friday delivery.
