What NOT to Send: Items Lewis County Jail Will Reject in the Mail
Rejected mail is frustrating — and it delays your loved one from getting what you sent. Here's a quick rundown of items Lewis County Jail won't accept through the mail, plus what to do instead.
Common Rejected

- ✓ Stickers, glued items, collages, or similar items
- ✓ Laminated/plasticized item(s)
Lewis County Jail specifically lists these item types as
Here's a good rule of thumb: anything plasticized, layered, or with adhesives is likely to get turned away. Polaroid-style photos, stickers, glued-on decorations, laminated items - all of these make mail harder to process and inspect. Keep it flat, simple, and paper-only. That's what gets through screening without issues.
Note: Mail containing prohibited items won't be delivered. When in doubt, skip the extras and stick to plain paper.
