How to Send Money to Someone at Taylor County Detention
Need to put money on someone's account at Taylor County Detention? The facility accepts money orders at the lobby window, a money order drop box after hours, and online deposits through TaylorDeposits.com.
You have three ways to add funds. Bring a money order to the lobby window during business hours, use the after-hours drop box (also in the lobby, near the window), or make an online deposit through TaylorDeposits.com. Which option works best depends mostly on timing. Money orders can be handled in person during the day or dropped off when the window is closed, and online deposits are available anytime through the deposit site.
- ✓ Money order at the window inside the lobby (hours listed below)
- ✓ After-hours money order drop box in the lobby by the window
- ✓ Online deposits through TaylorDeposits.com
The lobby window accepts money orders Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 4:00 pm. If you show up outside those hours, use the drop box instead.
Payee reminder: Make money orders out to "TCDC/Inmate Name" and include the sender or purchaser name on the money order.
After hours, you can still drop off a money order using the drop box in the lobby by the window. Fill it out the same way (made out to TCDC with the inmate's name) and include the sender or purchaser name so staff can match the deposit correctly.
Online deposits go through TaylorDeposits.com. The facility's inmate services page also has links for adding money to phone accounts. If you're trying to fund calls (not just commissary or general funds), follow the directions on the appropriate link and complete the steps on the vendor's site.
Tip: Follow the on-screen directions at TaylorDeposits.com and double-check the inmate's information before submitting payment.
Getting the formatting right helps prevent delays. The facility's posted instructions say to fill out the money order as: "Pay to the order of: Taylor County Detention Center & Inmates Name." Elsewhere on the same page, it says money orders must be made out to "TCDC/Inmate Name." Either wording should work. Just make sure the inmate's name is on the payee line, and add the sender or purchaser name where the money order asks for it.
- ✓ Payee line matches the facility’s format (either “Taylor County Detention Center & Inmates Name” or “TCDC/Inmate Name”)
- ✓ Inmate name is clearly included on the money order
- ✓ Sender or purchaser name is filled in
Note: This formatting guidance comes from the facility's posted inmate services information.
