You can't drop off commissary items or arrange anything informally. Everything must be ordered through the Scioto County Jail Commissary Kiosk.
Orders follow a strict schedule with hard cutoffs. Inmates can place orders twice a week - Monday and Thursday - with each order capped at $60.00. If you're adding money, timing matters: funds must be deposited by 9:30 a.m. on the day the order goes in, or they won't be available.
No public drop-offs: Items from visitors or the public will not be permitted, accepted, or allowed within the jail.
The bottom line for families: don't bring toiletries, snacks, or other goods to the jail. Items from the public aren't allowed inside. To help, use the jail's commissary kiosk system. There's another option too - the Sheriff's Office mentions that family and friends can send a "care package" by ordering online through Access Securepak.
