Three Ways to Put Money on a Liberty County Jail Commissary Account — and Why You Shouldn't Mail Cash

Liberty County Jail accepts commissary deposits three ways. You can use the kiosk in the jail's front lobby at 180 Paul Sikes Dr., Hinesville, GA 31313. You can add funds online at www.jailpackstore.com. Or you can deposit by phone at 1-800-822-9388. The best method? Whichever one you can complete fastest - especially if you're racing to meet the Monday-evening cutoff for Tuesday's withdrawal.

The in-person option is a kiosk (looks like an ATM) in the jail's front lobby at 180 Paul Sikes Dr., Hinesville, GA 31313. If you're already heading to the facility, this is a quick way to add money to an inmate's commissary account.

The kiosk accepts cash or credit/bank cards. Anyone can make a deposit - no account setup required.

Can't make it to the lobby? Add money online at www.jailpackstore.com. This is usually the easiest option if you're out of town or handling things after hours.

Prefer the phone? Call 1-800-822-9388 and follow the prompts to add funds.

Here's the timing detail that matters: the commissary vendor pulls funds from inmate accounts on Tuesday mornings. If you want your deposit to count toward that week's order, get it done by Monday evening. Miss that window, and the money won't be available until the following week.

Practical Tips Verify
