Sending a Mail

All incoming mail should be addressed as follows:

Inmate's Name
P.O. Box 217
St. Cloud, MN 56302

All incoming mail will be processed through the U.S. Postal Service and will be delivered to the housing units within 12 hours of receipt.

  • Inmates may send and receive unlimited letters daily except where there is reliable information of a threat to order and security or that they are being used in the furtherance of illegal activity.
  • All mail content is read and if necessary may be rejected or stored until the inmate's release.  The exception to this is legal material mailed between attorney and client.
  • Paper and post-paid envelopes can be purchased through inmate supply. Upon request, indigent inmates may receive three prepaid postcards per week.
  • Mail addressed to an inmate who has been transferred or released will be returned to sender.

Sending Money

In most cases, inmates are only allowed money and no outside belongings. Money for inmates can be deposited three ways:

  • Deposit money online using a credit card at inmatecanteen.com
  • Mail cashier’s check or money order made payable to inmate (do not mail cash)
  • Deposit cash in kiosk on second floor of Law Enforcement Center

Personal and payroll checks are not accepted.  After a payment of a mandatory $25 booking fee, inmates may use their money in two ways:

  • order supplies like toiletries, art materials and mail envelopes from the Canteen
  • use a debit card at vending machines for snacks and beverage.

Phone Calls

Telephones are provided in all housing units and can be used whenever inmates are not on lockdown status.

  • Inmates may make collect calls or may purchase a jail calling card from the canteen program.  Any calls made to their lawyer are free. Instructions for making these calls are at each phone.
  • Inmates should be aware that all non-attorney calls will be recorded and that local collect calls are much more expensive than direct-dial calls.
  • To afford all inmates equal opportunity for telephone usage, all telephone calls are limited to 15 minutes per call.

Incoming telephone calls cannot be forwarded to housing units and only those messages that are a verifiable emergency or from legal counsel will be forwarded to inmates.
