How to Send Money to USP Florence (CO)

Commissary restrictions at USP Florence can limit what someone is able to buy. If your loved one is on commissary restriction, they can only purchase $15.00 worth of merchandise per month. That $15.00 cap does not include over-the-counter (OTC) items or stamps.

Stamps have their own separate cap. On the USP Florence commissary list, stamps are limited to $9.80 total value per inmate, regardless of what else they're buying.

A few products also have quantity limits that can catch people off guard. Copy cards are limited to 5 per inmate, and photo tickets are limited to 10 per inmate. Even if there's enough money in the account, those item caps still apply.

How to Send Money to USP Florence (CO)

Steps to Follow

  • ✓ Confirm whether your loved one is on commissary restriction, since that affects how much merchandise they can buy per month.
  • ✓ If they are restricted, plan around the $15.00 per month merchandise allowance (OTCs and stamps are excluded from that $15.00).
  • ✓ Keep stamp purchases within the $9.80 total value limit.
  • ✓ Stay within item limits on the commissary list, including copy cards (limit 5 per inmate) and photo tickets (limit 10 per inmate).

Before you send money with a specific purchase in mind, confirm your loved one's current status and limits. The key numbers at USP Florence: $15.00 per month for merchandise if they're on commissary restriction (OTCs and stamps don't count toward that cap), plus a separate $9.80 stamp limit.

Double-check the latest commissary list for controlled-item limits and current pricing, too. Copy cards have a limit of 5 per inmate, and photo tickets have a limit of 10 per inmate. Those caps can change, and they directly affect what your money can realistically cover.

Reminder: Confirm current limits directly with USP Florence or the official commissary list. The $15.00 restricted-merchandise allowance, the $9.80 stamp cap, and item limits (copy cards: 5; photo tickets: 10) are all policy-based and subject to change.
