Ordering Pre-Approved Packages and Footwear for Someone at Sampson
Want to send a care package or shoes to someone at Sampson? Your safest bet is the state's pre-approved package program—just double-check eligibility before placing your order.
You can order pre-approved seasonal packages - including footwear - through Union Supply Direct at ncinmatepackage.com. Everything in the catalog is already cleared for the North Carolina system, so you won't have to guess whether a specific item will be accepted.
Before ordering footwear, know the possession limits: one pair each of work boots, tennis shoes, and shower shoes. If they already have that type of shoe, an extra pair won't be allowed. Check what they currently have - or whether they're due for a replacement - before spending money on another pair.
Even with a correct order, packages can get cancelled if the person is placed on certain control statuses before shipping (HCON, MCON, ICON, or Safekeeper). If that happens, Union Supply Direct refunds your order minus a $5 restocking fee.
Confirm with Facility
- ✓ Call Sampson Correctional Institution to confirm the current package rules and any temporary restrictions
- ✓ Verify the incarcerated person’s eligibility to receive a package before you place the order
