Ways to Put Money on a Law Center Account
- Lobby Cashier machine. The sheriff's property page says this lobby unit accepts debit or credit cards and paper currency in denominations larger than one dollar, charging a modest fee per deposit.
- Inmate Canteen online. The sheriff names inmatecanteen.com for adding money to an inmate's books and phone balance.
- Access Corrections. The jail's listing adds Access Corrections online and by phone at 866-345-1884, plus retail kiosks.
- Paper money orders. Greenwalt's staff at 563-242-9211 can give the correct payee and destination for a postal money order, which should travel alone in its envelope.
Greenwalt's staff do not accept currency or personal checks for an inmate's account, so neither belongs in an envelope addressed to the jail.
