How to Send Mail to Someone at Lumley Unit After December 15, 2025

How to Send Mail to Someone at Lumley Unit After December 15, 2025

Starting December 15, 2025, personal mail for people at Lumley Unit gets routed through ADCRR's Digital Processing Center in Dallas, Texas. Letters, cards, photos, and similar correspondence should go to the Dallas address - staff there sort, scan, and upload everything so the recipient can view it digitally. This doesn't apply to legal mail, packages, publications, or official government mail. Those go to different addresses.

  • Dec 15, 2025: Personal mail must be sent to the ADCRR Digital Processing Center in Dallas, TX.
  • Dec 15, 2025–Jan 15, 2026: One-month grace period - personal mail mistakenly sent to the prison complex will still be processed and provided to the inmate.
  • After Jan 15, 2026: Personal mail improperly sent to the prison complex (instead of the Digital Processing Center) will be returned to sender.
  • Jan 7, 2026: Packages and publications must be sent to ADCRR’s centralized Phoenix address.

For personal mail after December 15, 2025, address your envelope to the ADCRR Digital Processing Center using this exact format: Arizona Department of Corrections, Rehabilitation and Reentry Inmate's Full First and Last Name + ADCRR Number Prison Complex, Assigned Unit PO Box 211309 Dallas, TX 75211 Missing or unclear information slows things down - staff have to figure out who it belongs to before they can scan and upload it.

  • Inmate’s full first and last name
  • ADCRR/ADC number
  • Prison complex and assigned unit (Lumley Unit)

Packages and publications don't go through the digital scanning process. They have their own centralized address. Starting January 7, 2026, send them to: Arizona Department of Corrections, Rehabilitation and Reentry Inmate's Full First and Last Name + ADCRR Number Prison Complex, Assigned Unit 801 E Jefferson Street Phoenix, AZ 85034 This is separate from the Dallas address used for personal letters, cards, and photos.

Some items still need to go directly to Lumley Unit - legal mail, for example, since it's excluded from the digital process. When you need the local address, use: Lumley Unit Inmate Name and ADC # P.O. Box 3300 Goodyear, AZ 85338 Even with the local address, include the full name and ADC/ADCRR number so staff can get it to the right person.

Practical Checklist

  • Use the inmate’s full first and last name.
  • Include the inmate’s ADCRR/ADC number.
  • Include the prison complex and assigned unit (Lumley Unit).
  • If you want your original physical mail returned after it’s scanned, include a self-addressed, stamped envelope (SASE) inside your correspondence.

Reminder: Legal mail, packages, publications, and official government mail are excluded from the digital mail process and must be sent to their specified addresses.

Once your mail arrives at the Digital Processing Center, Securus (ADCRR's partner) typically processes, scans, and makes it available within 3 business days. Weekends, holidays, or addressing problems can add time - so clear, complete information on the envelope really matters.

After mail is scanned, the original isn't kept forever. The contracted provider stores physical mail for 90 days, then professionally disposes of it. If the person you're writing to gets released, they can download their digitized mail using login credentials for up to 90 days after release. After that, the files are deleted.

Accidentally send personal mail to Lumley Unit instead of Dallas right after the change? There's a cushion. ADCRR is providing a one-month grace period from December 15, 2025 through January 15, 2026 - during this window, personal mail sent to the prison complex will still be processed and delivered. After January 15, 2026, personal mail sent to the wrong address gets returned to sender. Double-check before you drop it in the mailbox.
