How to Send a Care Package Through Union Supply to Mitchell County Jail (what to order, costs, and limits)

Union Supply is an approved package vendor under the Georgia Department of Corrections (GDC) program, and many facilities use it for food and care packages. Before ordering, confirm that Mitchell County Jail participates in the Union Supply program and check for any local restrictions. Participation and vendor options vary by location, so verify the facility's current package rules first.

Under the GDC program, approved family and friends can place a Union Supply order on behalf of an incarcerated person, as long as the facility allows packages through the program.

You can place a Union Supply order online, by phone, by fax, or by mail. For mail orders, send to Union Supply Group, Inc., 1058 E. Industrial Park Dr., Ste. J, Union, MO 63084. Phone orders: 1-855-433-6818. Fax orders: 1-636-583-7346.

Every Union Supply order includes a $2.95 shipping and handling charge. This fee is non-refundable, so factor it into your total when budgeting against the spending limit.

Union Supply orders have both spending limits and weight limits. These limits depend on the facility type - state prisons and ITFs (inmate transition facilities) allow higher totals than detention centers. If you place more than one order during the same ordering period, those orders get consolidated. The combined total counts toward a single limit, not separate ones.

• ✓ State prisons and ITFs: up to $100 total and up to 15 lbs
• ✓ Detention centers: up to $50 total and up to 7 lbs
• ✓ Multiple orders during the same period may be consolidated and applied toward the same limit

Union Supply runs on ordering deadlines. Orders received after the cutoff won't be accepted. Check the current ordering window and submit early - especially if you're mailing or faxing paperwork.
