There are three options for putting money on an inmate's books:
Option 1 - Deposit Inmate Money Online
Baltimore Central Booking & Intake Center uses Access Corrections to process all online deposits to an inmate's account. Access Corrections charges you a small fee for doing so, but the fee probably isn't as much as gas and parking would cost to take it to the jail in person.
Option 2 - Mail the Inmate Deposit to the Jail
Mailing a deposit takes more time to process than the other methods but can be done if you live too far away to bring it in person and you don't have a debit/credit card for online deposits. Never send cash. Always send a Money Order from the US Post Office, a reputable bank, Western Union, or Moneygram.
DPSCS Lockbox
P.O. Box 17111
Baltimore, MD 21297-0382
You should call the banking institution that issued the money order for the date cashed or similarly related questions, first..
Option 3 - Make an Inmate Deposit over the Phone by calling Access Corrections at 866-345-1884.
