Mailing Address

Mail for inmates at Kentucky River Regional Jail goes to:

Inmate Full Name
Inmate ID# [ID Number]
Kentucky River Regional Jail
200 Justice Drive
Hazard, KY 41701

Include the inmate’s full legal name and Inmate ID number on every piece of mail. Mail without a proper ID number may be delayed or returned.

Books and Reading Material

Books must be shipped directly from the publisher or an approved retailer such as Amazon or Barnes and Noble. Do not bring books in person and do not send them in an envelope with a letter. Call 606-436-4032 to confirm which retailers are approved before ordering.

What Not to Send

Do not send cash, personal checks, or prepaid debit cards in the mail. These are confiscated. Money for the inmate goes through Care A Cell at careacell.com or by mailing a money order to the same address.

Do not send food, clothing, or contraband. Packages are inspected and prohibited items will be rejected.

Sending Messages and Photos Digitally

GettingOut, the jail’s phone and video visit provider, also supports messaging and photo sharing. Through your GettingOut account at gettingout.com, you can send messages and photos directly to the inmate at the facility. This is faster than physical mail and delivery is typically same-day to the inmate’s kiosk or tablet.

For help with digital messaging, call GettingOut at 866-516-0115.

A Paper Letter Instead of a Kiosk Message

Some families want a letter the person can hold, not a message on the GettingOut kiosk. Pigeonly prints the words or pictures you send from your phone and mails them to 200 Justice Dr. in Hazard with the name and Inmate ID number you provide, so stamps and paper stay off your shopping list. It’s regular mail and gets inspected like everything else that arrives.
