Since it is a short-term facility, call ahead and ask to see how long the inmate will be located at the Rockaway City Jail. Some inmates are only in this facility for a couple of days, so your mail might miss out on being delivered. All mail going into this facility is opened and screened.

You can set up magazines and newspaper deliveries to go directly from the publishers to this address, but you cannot send them from yourself directly to an inmate.

Sending Money

Inmates cannot receive phone calls. During the booking process, they will be able to make a free phone call to an attorney or a family member notifying them of their whereabouts.
