How to Send Mail to Someone at Louisville Metro Corrections (exact address, how to address it, and how to track delivery)

All inmate postal mail must be sent to this address (copy exactly): Smart Communications / Louisville Metro Corrections, PO Box 9180, Seminole, FL 33775-9174.

Include the inmate's name and booking/ID number on the address line so it reaches the right account. Format it like this: Adam Smith #123456. That "# + booking/ID" is how the mail gets matched to the correct person. Print it clearly on the outside of your envelope or postcard.

Louisville Metro Corrections uses a free service called MailGuard that lets you track what happens to your mail after you send it. Create a free MailGuard account to view delivery status, get notifications if something is rejected, and download copies of processed mail.

Wondering why your mail goes to Florida? Louisville Metro Corrections has all postal mail processed off-site before delivery. Once scanned, the mail is delivered to inmates through password-protected kiosks or tablets inside the facility.

Regular postal items (postcards, letters, and greeting cards) are scanned into the system. After processing, inmates view their mail through the kiosks.

If your mail is rejected, MailGuard is the fastest way to find out. With a free account, you'll get rejection notifications and can download copies of processed mail. This helps you see exactly what happened and what your loved one did or didn't receive.
