Where to Mail Letters and Books to Someone at Onslow County Jail
Getting the address and format right matters. Mail or book packages that don't follow the jail's rules can be delayed or sent back. Here's where to send personal mail, professional mail, and books so they actually get through.
For personal letters and cards, use this exact format. Include the inmate's full name and ID number: Inmate Name and ID # Onslow County Jail PO Box 25958 Tampa, FL 33622
Professional mail goes to a different address - directly to the facility. Put the inmate's name and ID number on the first line, then the street address: Inmate Name and ID # Onslow County Jail 717 Court St Jacksonville, NC 28540
Book Rules
- ✓ Books must be brand new.
- ✓ Books must be softback (paperback).
- ✓ Books must be shipped from a publisher or distributor (for example: Amazon, Books-A-Million, Barnes & Noble).
Note: Books that aren't new, aren't paperback, or aren't shipped directly from a publisher or distributor may be rejected.
Practical Tips
- ✓ Put the inmate’s full name and ID number on everything you send (letters and book orders).
- ✓ Use the personal mail PO Box address for personal letters, and the 717 Court St address for professional mail.
- ✓ When you order books, double-check that the order will be shipped from a publisher or distributor (such as Amazon, Books-A-Million, or Barnes & Noble), and that the book is brand new and paperback.
