How to Send Money to Yancey County Jail, NC (NC)

The only published fees from Yancey County in available materials are for public library services, not jail deposits. Those documents list black-and-white printing at $0.10 per page, with inconsistent color printing prices across different entries. If you're trying to cover printing costs for someone, these fees might help you budget. But they won't tell you how to add funds to an inmate account, which vendors the jail uses, or what rules apply.

Steps-to-follow

• ✓ Use the published Yancey County library fee as a baseline if you are budgeting for black-and-white printing/copies ($0.10 per page).
• ✓ Treat the color printing price as unresolved because county materials list both $0.25 per page and $0.30 per page.
• ✓ Before you send any money for an incarcerated person at Yancey County Jail, call to confirm the jail’s accepted deposit methods and any limits or processing times.
• ✓ If you are specifically trying to cover printing costs, confirm the current black-and-white rate and which color rate is actually being charged before sending funds for that purpose.

When you call Yancey County Jail, ask about two things: the deposit process and any specific costs you're covering. Available county materials only show printing fees ($0.10 per page for black-and-white, with conflicting color prices of $0.25 versus $0.30). Ask the jail which deposit methods they accept for inmate funds, whether that's an online vendor, lobby kiosk, or money orders. Also ask about any limits, fees, and how long it takes for deposits to post.

1. Call for the current money-deposit instructions: Ask what methods are accepted to add funds for someone at Yancey County Jail and whether there are posting delays.
2. Confirm the black-and-white price: Ask if the $0.10 per page black-and-white printing/copy fee shown in county materials is current.
3. Resolve the color-price conflict: Ask directly whether the current color printing fee is $0.25 per page or $0.30 per page.
4. Request something you can reference later: If staff can point you to a written policy or an official document, save it so you can follow the same rules next time.
