• ✓ On the same Inmate Information page, review the procedures for sending mail to an inmate.

Before you make the trip, confirm the details through the jail's posted visitation procedures. That's where you'll find the specifics that determine whether you get in: visit times, whether you need to be on an approved list, accepted forms of ID, the dress code, what you can bring inside, and any scheduling rules.

Mail rules can be strict, so double-check the jail's published procedures before sending anything. Look for details on how to address the envelope, what items are allowed or prohibited, content restrictions, and what sender information you need to include.
