What Happens to Personal Property When Someone Arrives at Rolling Plains

When someone arrives at Rolling Plains, they don't keep their personal property. Staff inventory and log everything during intake, then secure it. Valuables go into property bags and are stored in a designated secure area - nothing moves around the facility unaccounted for.

The intake process involves detailed paperwork. Staff inventory and log each item, documenting everything on a personal property form. That form gets attached directly to the property bag, creating a clear paper trail tied to the stored items.

Intake Issues Received

  • An RPDC facility detainee handbook
  • The ICE National Detainee Handbook (available in English and Spanish)
  • Appropriate clothing
  • Hygiene supplies

Note: Rolling Plains provides appropriate clothing and hygiene supplies during intake, so your loved one isn’t expected to rely on what they arrived with for basic needs.

What Happens to Personal Property When Someone Arrives at Rolling Plains

Valuables are placed into sealed property bags and stored in a secure area. The key point: this property stays under facility control. It's not left unsecured or mixed in with everyday housing items.

  1. Inventory and log the property - Staff document what the person has during the intake process.
  2. Place valuables into a sealed property bag - Valuables are secured inside a property bag to keep them contained and protected.
  3. Attach the personal property form to the bag - The documented inventory is kept with the bag as an identifying record.
  4. Move the bag into secure storage - The sealed bag is stored in a secure area under facility control.

Here's what this means for you: your loved one's valuables and personal property should be formally recorded during intake, sealed in a property bag, and stored securely. Wondering where something went after arrival? The inventory and property bag process is how Rolling Plains tracks it.
