Custody Commissary System

ONLINE COMMISSARY ORDERS:

The Sheriff’s Office does not receive any commission from commissary sales. As a result, the overall menu pricing has been reduced to offer the lowest rates for all inmates.  Please note: due to COVID-19 restricted access precautions, only one iCare gift package will be available at this time.

You can now go online and order items to be shipped into the custody facilities. Products offered online are the same products that are offered to inmates. However, not all items offered to inmates are available online, and items are bundled together rather than sold individually.

  • Products will be delivered to inmates on regular delivery days​​
