As an approved vendor, we are mandated to follow the rules and regulations set forth by the Kansas Department of Corrections. All items in this catalog have been approved for purchase. This is a statewide monthly package program. Offenders may receive (1) one package per month, not to exceed a total value of $75, which is to include sales tax and shipping and handling (i.e. Products + sales tax + S&H must be $75 or less). If you order more than $75, Union Supply Direct will remove items at our discretion to meet the dollar requirement. Offenders classified as incentive level II, III, or E are eligible to receive (1) one package per month. All others are ineligible to participate in the monthly package program. If an offender’s incentive level changes or they are released/paroled prior to the shipping of a package, Union Supply Direct will cancel the order and issue a refund to the purchaser. Package privileges are subject to change without notice.
OFFENDERS: The ordering deadlines for offenders are set by the facility and subject to change at any time. All offender orders must be placed by facility telephones. Offenders must place all orders using the 5-digit “offender” phone order #. All offender item numbers are identified on the offender phone order form and catalog. All 3rd party orders will use the 7-digit item # identified on the web, offender phone order menu, and catalog.
FAMILY AND FRIENDS: Sales Orders can be placed by friends and family using the Union Supply website (KSpackageprogram.com), calling our toll-free customer service number, or mail. The ordering deadline for friends and family is typically the 1st Friday of every month. Some months may vary due to holidays and scheduled delivery dates. If an order is received after the deadline (see ordering period calendar) it will be processed for the following month.
