Two limits to know upfront: Union Supply orders include a $2.95 shipping and handling charge, and that fee is non-refundable. For prepaid telephone accounts, each deposit is capped at $200.00. Those are the only money-related details documented here. Payment methods (card, money order, online portal), processing times, and other account limits aren't specified, so verify those before sending funds.

How to Send Money to Facility

Steps to Follow

  • ✓ If you are ordering through Union Supply, plan for the extra $2.95 shipping and handling charge (it is non-refundable).
  • ✓ If you are funding a prepaid telephone account, keep each individual deposit at $200.00 or less.

Before submitting any payment, confirm the rules are still current. For Union Supply purchases, check the shipping and handling line on the order details or confirmation page. Make sure you're comfortable with the $2.95 fee being non-refundable. For prepaid telephone funding, verify the $200.00 maximum per deposit through the telephone provider's account terms. Accepted payment methods, processing hours, and other possible limits aren't specified in available documentation, so check the facility's published policies and the provider's instructions directly.

Note: Keep each prepaid telephone deposit at $200.00 or less to avoid rejected payments or delays.
