When You Can Order Commissary at Lawrence County Jail (Weekly Schedule and Delivery Day)

Commissary ordering opens at 12:00 a.m. Tuesday and stays open through "lights out" on Wednesday. That gives you about a day and a half to get your order in. Orders are typically delivered on Friday. If a holiday shifts the ordering days or delivery, the jail posts advance notice so you're not caught off guard.

Don't assume the normal Tuesday-to-Wednesday ordering window or Friday delivery holds during holiday weeks. When the schedule shifts, the facility announces it ahead of time. To make sure your loved one doesn't miss a week, watch for posted announcements inside the jail during holidays. Those notices tell you whether ordering days or delivery will move.

Lawrence County Jail doesn't make changes to orders once they're submitted. Double-check quantities, sizes, and everything else before you hit submit. If you're waiting on money to hit the account, hold off on placing the order. Submitting early and hoping for adjustments won't work here. Writing down what you want beforehand helps you move faster once the window opens.

• ✓ Review your cart carefully before submitting (items, quantities, sizes)
• ✓ If you think you’ll add items later, put items in your cart and log out without submitting
• ✓ Place the final order before “lights out” on Wednesday
• ✓ If you’re counting on a deposit, consider waiting for it to post before you submit (since orders can’t be changed afterward)
• ✓ Keep a short written list of what you want so you don’t forget anything during ordering

Run into problems ordering on Tuesday or Wednesday? Submit a "Request" to "Commissary – Melissa" before 6:00 p.m. Wednesday. The earlier you get it in, the better chance staff has to help before the window closes.
