Yeah hanksmom I am in the same boat as you. My man just got moved over the weeked and I dont know anything. He is in a box too and if you find some infor please pass it along

One more thing? Is that a max or medium

The box visits at Orleans are at night. It starts at 5pm and ends at 9pm and are on saturdays only. The only van that goes up there is Flamboyant. They meet on 34th-35th and 8th right in front of th McDonalds. When I was going up it was $70, I'm not sure if it's changed since December. The van used to leave at 8am and we were back on 34th by between 3 & 4am. I hope the info helps you some.

Hello Everyone at PTO,
I hope this info can be of help to someone, Orleans CF. is located in Albion, NY. On route 31W right next door to the Albion CF. for Women. Directions for driving are given on the NYSDOCs site, or you can get specific driving directions from one of the map locators on the web. Their phone number is (585)-589-6820. Their visiting hours are from 8:00 to 3:00 Saturday and Sunday. They stop recieving visitors at 2:00, packages may be taken with you, if you drop the package off before your visit, if there is anything that they can not have, it will be returned to you after the visit. They are allowed 35 pounds of food per month. Magazines and Books, do not have to be shipped through an online vendor or directly from the publisher, but can not be more than 3 months old. The usual 2 cartons of cigarettes with tax stamp, tobacco, and etc. per month is allowed. Clothing, shoes, and etc. in the normal colors that are allowed, see NYS forum on Inmate Packages. If you smoke you are allowed to take in one unopened pack of cigarettes for you and your loved ones personal use while there. The visitors are allowed out on the hour and inmates allowed out on the half hour, My visit was short so we didn't go outside in the smoking section. If you want your inmate to get the package that you left on the same day, you must leave by 2:30 as the package room closes at 2:45. Photo ID is neccessary for visit. This is a very clean facility, The CO's try to be helpful. The maximum # of visitors is 3, children under 3 aren't counted as one. This is a Medium Security Facility. I hope that you all have the best of times on your visit, under the circumstances anyway.
