How Commissary Works at Lee County Jail: Ordering on Monday, Delivery on Thursday
Commissary is the fastest way for your loved one to get basics while they're at Lee County Jail. Orders run on a weekly cycle, and money orders have a strict cutoff—here's how it works.
Commissary at Lee County Jail follows a set weekly cycle. Inmates place orders on Monday, and those orders arrive on Thursday. Simple rule: order Monday, receive Thursday. Keep that rhythm in mind when helping someone stock up on snacks, hygiene items, or other basics.
Sending a money order? The deadline is tight. It must arrive before 10:00 a.m. on Monday to count toward that week's Thursday delivery. Miss that window, and the funds won't hit their account until the following week.
- ✓ Make the money order payable to the inmate.
- ✓ Address the envelope to the inmate.
Lee County Jail doesn't accept outside packages. You can't mail in food, toiletries, or personal items from home - they simply won't be accepted. Commissary is the approved way to get supplies to your loved one.
Since commissary is the main channel for getting items to inmates, that Monday order / Thursday delivery schedule is what you'll need to plan around.
Phone time works through commissary too - inmates can buy phone cards when they place their weekly order. Want to add minutes from outside? Call NCIC Customer Service at (800) 483-8314, Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.
