How to Send Money to Someone at Webb County Detention Center (CoreCivic lockbox)
Sending commissary money to someone at Webb County Detention Center? CoreCivic uses a central lockbox mailing address for deposits—skip the cash and personal checks to avoid delays.
CoreCivic's lockbox system handles commissary deposits for Webb County Detention Center. You'll mail a money order or cashier's check to a dedicated P.O. box. Cash and personal checks won't work here - using the right payment type from the start saves you time and hassle.
Payment Types
- ✓ Money order (made payable to the person receiving the funds)
- ✓ Cashier’s check (made payable to the person receiving the funds)
Warning: Do not send cash or a personal check to the CoreCivic lockbox - those payment types are not accepted.
- Make sure you have the right recipient details - You’ll need the incarcerated person’s first and last name, their commissary number, and the facility name.
- Write your return address clearly - Put your name and full return address on the envelope.
- Address the envelope to the CoreCivic lockbox - Use: P.O. BOX 16545, Atlanta, GA 30321-0545.
- Format the “inmate” line the way the lockbox expects - List the incarcerated person as “Last name, First name,” then include their commissary number and the facility.
Before sealing the envelope, double-check your money order or cashier's check. Make it payable to the person receiving the funds. Write your name and address clearly on the payment itself - this helps staff match everything up and keeps the deposit from getting held.
Do not add extras: Don’t include letters, cards, photos, or packages with a money order or cashier’s check sent to the lockbox. Items sent with the payment won’t be forwarded to your loved one or returned to you.
Troubleshooting
- ✓ Missing the incarcerated person’s full name on the envelope
- ✓ Leaving off the commissary number
- ✓ Not listing the facility with the incarcerated person’s name/commissary number
- ✓ Making the money order/cashier’s check payable to someone other than the person receiving the funds
- ✓ Forgetting to include your (sender) name and return address on the envelope
- ✓ Not writing the sender name and address clearly on the money order or cashier’s check (when possible)
Accidentally sent cash or a personal check? The lockbox won't process it. Your best move is to send a new payment - this time as a money order or cashier's check made payable to the person receiving the funds. Include their name, commissary number, facility, and the lockbox P.O. box on the envelope.
