Audubon County Jail Sending Money
Deposit Money for an Inmate in the Audubon County Jail
Money for an Audubon County Jail Inmate
Commissary purchases are paid from an inmate's account, and the jail at 712-563-2631 decides how money reaches that account.
- Find out whether money orders work, whose name goes on them and where they are sent.
- Ask whether staff at the courthouse take payments in person, and at what hours.
- Check any online or kiosk deposit service with the jail before using it.
- Never mail cash, and never mail a personal check, to the courthouse jail.
What the balance pays for is covered on our Audubon County commissary page.

Inmate Care Packages
Care Packages for Audubon County Inmates
Boxes of food, snacks or toiletries put together at home are typically refused at Iowa county jails, and items mailed straight to the Leroy Street courthouse jail are no exception. What works instead is a money order sent to Suite 4 of the courthouse on Leroy Street, written to the prisoner by booked name, which jailers post to that person's balance. The prisoner then orders from the jail's commissary list with that balance, so the money reaches them as snacks, hygiene items or writing supplies. Calls, texts and screen visits on Leroy Street are bought from Reliance and never draw on commissary money. Jailers at 712-563-2631 can confirm whether any ready-made package program is running.

What an Inmate Account Pays For
Money on an Audubon County inmate's account generally covers commissary items such as snacks and hygiene products. Leroy Street prisoners pay Reliance for calls out of a separate wallet, and unspent money typically leaves with them at release.
