How to Send Mail to Someone at Wicomico County Detention Center (Addressing & Return Address Rules)
One missing detail on the envelope can keep your letter from reaching your loved one. Use the exact name and number format the jail requires, and always include a complete return address.
Every piece of mail sent to Wicomico County Detention Center needs the inmate's full name and inmate number on the envelope. Staff use that combination to match mail to the right person. Leave either one out and your letter could be delayed or never delivered.
