- ✓ If mailing a money order, include the inmate’s name, dorm number, and bed or cell number on it.
- ✓ Mail the money order to: P.O. Box 3135, Covington, Louisiana 70434.
Before sending money, confirm the current process with the jail. This is especially important if it's your first time. Ask about the online deposit process and what information you'll need to enter. If you're mailing a money order, double-check the required formatting for the inmate's name, dorm number, and bed or cell number. Verify the mailing address is still P.O. Box 3135, Covington, Louisiana 70434. Ask about any limits, fees, or timing holds that could affect when funds become available. Keep in mind the Sheriff's Office won't provide public information about offender accounts, commissary, or deposits, so you likely won't get status updates after you send money.
Tip: Keep your receipt and a copy of any money order stub or tracking details. Since account and deposit information is not given out publicly, your paperwork is often your best proof if something needs to be followed up.
