Send letters and photos in minutes
We want to be direct about this: the Kennebec County Sheriff’s Office website confirms the facility’s address and phone number, and it publishes detailed policies on visiting, phone calls, and property pickup, but it doesn’t publish a detailed mail policy the same way. There’s no confirmed list of paper color restrictions, photo size limits, or package rules from the Sheriff’s Office itself. Instead of guessing based on what other Maine county jails allow, here’s what’s confirmed and what isn’t, along with the direct number to call before mailing anything beyond a standard letter.
Send mail to:
[Full Legal Name, Identification Number]
Kennebec County Correctional Facility
115 State Street
Augusta, ME 04330
This address is confirmed directly from the Kennebec County Sheriff’s Office website. Always include a complete, legible return address on the envelope, and confirm the inmate’s Identification Number if you don’t already have it by calling Intake at (207) 623-2270 ext. 1111.
The Sheriff’s Office publishes detailed pages for visiting, phone calls, and even property pickup after release, but its website doesn’t include the kind of mail-specific rules that some other Maine county jails publish, such as accepted paper colors, banned items, or photo size limits. We checked the Sheriff’s Office website directly and did not find a separate published mail policy for Kennebec County Correctional Facility.
Instead of guessing at rules based on other facilities, here’s the honest situation: if you’re sending a standard letter, the address above is confirmed and should work. If you want to send anything else, such as photos, a card, a book, or a package, call the facility directly at (207) 623-2270 first to confirm it’s allowed before you mail it.
The Sheriff’s Office’s FAQ page states that as of April 10, 2018, the facility no longer accepts in-person property drop-offs. This rule is stated in the context of physical items brought to the facility in person, and the website doesn’t separately clarify whether the same restriction extends to items sent through the mail. Call (207) 623-2270 to ask directly if you’re planning to send anything beyond a standard letter.
Like other correctional facilities, incoming mail at Kennebec County Correctional Facility is opened and inspected by staff before it reaches the inmate. This is standard practice across Maine county jails and isn’t specific to Kennebec County, but it’s worth knowing before you send anything you’d consider private, since facility staff will see the contents.
Don’t mail cash to Kennebec County Correctional Facility to fund an inmate’s account. The facility’s confirmed money process runs through the Keefe Commissary Network. See the send money guide for what’s confirmed about that process, and call (207) 623-2270 if you’re considering a money order.
The Sheriff’s Office’s published materials don’t separately describe how legal mail from an attorney, court, or government office is handled compared to personal mail. If you’re an attorney or legal representative with a question about sending confidential correspondence, call (207) 623-2270 directly.
Before mailing anything, confirm the person is still in custody at Kennebec County Correctional Facility. Check the inmate search guide, or call Intake at (207) 623-2270 ext. 1111.
