Ordering food packages for someone at a Georgia state prison (Union Supply): limits, costs, and how to order

Union Supply is the approved vendor for sending food packages to people in Georgia Department of Corrections (GDC) State Prisons and Inmate Transition Facilities (ITFs). Every item in the catalog has already been cleared by GDC. There are firm caps: each person can receive up to $100 worth of goods or a package up to 15 lbs - whichever limit you hit first is where your order has to stop.

Plan your cart around the maximums: $100 per person or 15 lbs per package. Hit either cap first, and that's where your order has to stop.

Probation Detention Centers (PDCs) have different limits: $50 per person or 7 lbs per package, whichever comes first.

To order by mail, send your completed order to: Union Supply, 2500 Regent Blvd, Dept. 421, P.O. Box 619059, Dallas, TX 75261-9059.

You can also order by phone, fax, or online. Since contact details and instructions change, check the current GDC
