Sending Money, Buying Commissary, and Alternatives to Care Packages at Volusia County

Volusia County uses Access Securepak for commissary items and care-package style purchases. Place an order at www.flcountypackages.com or call 1-800-546-6283. Can't mail a box of snacks or toiletries yourself? This vendor option is the approved way to get those items to your loved one.

Adding money by card? Expect extra costs. Access Corrections, the facility's third-party vendor, charges service fees on credit and debit card deposits. The amount that lands in the inmate's account will be less than what you pay, so factor that fee into your total.

Mail Money Orders

• ✓ Use only these mailed payment types: money orders, cashier’s checks, or certified government checks.
• ✓ Make the money order payable to the inmate.
• ✓ Include the inmate’s booking number.
• ✓ Do not send cash.
• ✓ Do not send personal checks or payroll checks.
• ✓ Do not send food.

When someone is booked into Volusia County Corrections, any cash found on them goes into a personal inmate banking account. That money isn't just for snacks. It can cover booking and subsistence fees, commissary purchases, copies, medical visits, prescriptions, and outstanding debt from previous incarceration stays.

• ✓ $30.00 one-time per-booking fee (deducted from the inmate’s account)
• ✓ $5.00 per-day subsistence fee (deducted from the inmate’s account)
• ✓ The $5.00/day subsistence fee is waived for inmates who are eligible and choose to work while incarcerated
• ✓ Inmates may request a refund of subsistence fees if they are acquitted
