Inmate Commissary

The jail facility has an Inmate Commissary that sells items such as candy, snacks, toilet articles, etc. The facility manager sets the selling prices of these items so that the inmate store remains financially self-sufficient. An added profit margin may be levied on the items to provide for an Inmate Welfare Fund.

The facility manager spends money deposited in the Inmate Welfare Fund solely for the benefit and welfare of the inmates confined in this jail. Such expenditures may include television sets, radios, recreation equipment, etc.

When an Inmate is received during the week for a commitment, they will be given toothpaste, a toothbrush, shampoo, soap, and a comb. While an Inmate is incarcerated, they will be supplied with hygiene items for their stay as long as they have no money to purchase these items from the commissary store.

Money can be placed on an inmate's account using the links below. You will need the inmate's arrest number. For assistance, call (209) 754-6499.

Phone account information: (800) 844-6591

Bring cash or credit card to the jail lobby kiosk to be placed on an inmate's account during regular business hours.

You may not place funds in an inmate's account if you have been incarcerated
in the Calaveras County Jail in the last 90 days.
