Bayside Mailing Address

Where Letters Go

Letters for Bayside are not mailed to Leesburg. NJDOC routes general mail through Pigeonly Corrections:

[Full Name] - [SBI Number]
Bayside State Prison - 1403
PO Box 96777
Las Vegas, NV 89193

1403 is Bayside’s facility code. Include your name and return address.

Scanned, Then Printed

Each letter is scanned in color, printed and sent on to the prison. NJDOC keeps the original 45 days and then destroys it, so do not mail anything you need back.

Sizes and Photos

• Envelopes no larger than 4 x 9½ inches, paper up to 8½ x 11.
• Greeting cards and postcards up to 5 x 7.
• 4 x 6 photos, 10 per envelope at most.

Not accepted: glitter, rhinestones, stickers or anything glued on; wax paper; photos cut into shapes; sticky notes; Express, Priority or bubble envelopes; newspaper clippings; bulk mail; money; Polaroids and photos printed by third-party photo vendors such as Shutterfly; official documents, and anything you do not want destroyed. If one item breaks the rules, the whole envelope is rejected.

Packages, Books and Legal Mail

These go to NJDOC’s Centralized Search and Sorting Center (CSSC) in Crosswicks, not to Leesburg:

[Full Name] - [SBI Number]
CSSC
55 Hogback Rd
Crosswicks, NJ 08515

Legal mail is marked “Confidential” with the law office’s return address. Packages come from an approved source, publications directly from the publisher or vendor.

Saving the Days a Posted Letter Spends in Transit

A posted letter to code 1403 needs 3 to 5 business days to reach the Las Vegas box before it’s scanned and printed for Bayside. Letters and photos you send through Pigeonly on your phone skip that trip, though the 10-photo limit still applies.
