Two Different Addresses: Where to Mail Letters vs. Legal Documents to Muhlenberg County Jail
Muhlenberg County Detention Center uses two different mailing addresses depending on what you're sending. Use the right one and label it correctly—this keeps your mail from getting delayed or lost.
For regular mail from friends and family, use the PO Box address in Highland Heights. Address the envelope like this: Inmate Name – Inmate ID, Muhlenberg County Detention Center, PO Box 76550, Highland Heights, KY 41076. Don't skip the inmate name and ID - both are required so staff can match the mail to the right person.
Legal mail from attorneys goes to the Greenville street address, not the PO Box. Use: Inmate Name – Inmate ID, Muhlenberg County Detention Center, 108 Court Row, Greenville, KY 42345. Same rule applies - include the inmate's full name and ID so it gets routed correctly.
Must-have on every envelope: Include the inmate's name and ID on all incoming mail. That's how staff identify who it belongs to.
Return address required: Put a clear return address on the envelope. Mail without one may be destroyed.
