All incarcerated individual mail should be addressed using: Inmate name, DOC number, Allegheny County Jail, 950 Second Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA 15219. For letters, use blue/black ink or pencil only. No stickers – including an address sticker – stains, glitter, lipstick kisses or perfume are allowed.
Incoming mail generally takes several days to process and deliver to inmates. Incoming mail will be delivered to the inmate providing it does not jeopardize the legitimate penological interest of the jail facilities to provide a safe and secure environment for all inmates and staff.
Inmates are permitted to send and receive unlimited correspondence. The only exception is when there is reasonable cause to justify limitations for reasons of public safety or facility order, or to prevent violation of state or federal law. All incoming/outgoing mail is subject to search prior to being delivered.
The envelope should bear the inmate's name, ID, and facility address. Before sending it, ensure that all content follows prison restrictions.

The most reliable method to find an inmate in Allegheny County Jail is by visiting the official Allegheny County Jail Inmate Locator. This tool is designed to offer accurate and up-to-date information about the inmates housed in the facility.
Inmates may receive up to seven paperback books or publications a day, which must be sent via the United States Postal Service (USPS), UPS, or FedEx. A USPS delivery scan may indicate a book has been delivered to the post office, which does not necessarily mean it has arrived at the ACJ.
