All non-legal and non-commercial mail sent to the address given will be processed by the mail scanning vendor and delivered to the inmate electronically via kiosks or tablets. The original mail item received will be destroyed.

Clearly print the inmate name and ID number on the outside of the envelope or postcard. Failure to include this information could result in lost or misdirected mail.

Continue to send all books, legal and commercial mail directly to the Chatham County Detention Center. A CCSO staff member opens all legal and religious mail in front of the inmate. Inmates may only have four (4) paperback books, magazines, and other publications in their possession at a time. This does not include religious items received from legitimate religious organizations or legal materials.

After August 01, 2020 all non-legal and commercial mail not addressed properly will be returned or discarded.
