Gloucester County Corrections Division Overview
Gloucester County Corrections Division is located at 70 Hunter Street in Woodbury, New Jersey, and is tied to the Gloucester County Sheriff's Office corrections function. The official county Corrections page lists Warden Eugene J. Caldwell II and describes the division's primary purpose as transporting all lawfully detained inmates efficiently, securely and humanely while providing safety for the public, staff and inmates. That is different from operating an active public jail roster for adults held in Woodbury.
The county's own corrections subpages are explicit. Male offenders are no longer housed in Gloucester County. Female offenders are no longer housed in Gloucester County. Juvenile offenders are no longer housed in Gloucester County. The Gloucester bail page also says bails are no longer accepted at Gloucester County Department of Corrections in Woodbury and must be handled at the facility where the inmate is housed.
The official Gloucester County Corrections Division page shows the Woodbury address, Warden Caldwell, phone number and links to local corrections functions.
The source is useful because it identifies the local corrections office while the surrounding Gloucester pages explain that current housing and bail questions are routed to the actual facility holding the person.
Gloucester County Corrections Division Capacity and Population
Gloucester County Corrections Division should not be described as having a current adult jail population at 70 Hunter Street. Research located a historical Gloucester County Jail correctional-population figure of 358 in Census 2020 correctional-population data with a 2013 date marker, but that is historical context only. Current official Gloucester pages state that male, female and juvenile offenders are no longer housed in Gloucester County.
The current population model is distributed. Gloucester adult arrestees are admitted into Salem County Jail, then may be transferred after processing and classification. Adult male and female offender pages direct inquiries to Salem, Atlantic and Essex. Juvenile questions are routed to Camden County Youth Detention Center or Middlesex County Youth Services, and Gloucester also operates court-ordered alternatives such as juvenile home electronic detention.
How to Look Up an Inmate Through Gloucester County Corrections Division
There is no official Gloucester County online jail roster located in the county pages reviewed. A Gloucester County custody search is a routing process, not a single local roster search. The first question is whether the person is newly arrested, currently in regional jail custody, sentenced to NJDOC, in federal custody, in immigration custody, or involved in juvenile proceedings.
- For a new adult Gloucester arrest, start with the fact that the person is transported and admitted into Salem County Jail. Try Salem's official corrections lookup and call Salem if the online result is unavailable.
- If Salem does not confirm custody, use Gloucester's male and female offender routing and contact Atlantic County Gerard L. Gormley Justice Facility or Essex County Correctional Facility when those facilities are possible housing sites.
- For a sentenced state prisoner, use the NJDOC Offender Search, which is separate from county jail custody.
- For custody notifications, use New Jersey VINE as an alert tool, then verify details with the actual holding facility.
For records rather than live custody, use the correct record holder. Gloucester Sheriff's Office record checks for law-enforcement agencies go to sheriffrecords@co.gloucester.nj.us from an official law-enforcement email address. Non-law-enforcement requesters use the Gloucester County OPRA process. Court charges and case events belong to NJ Courts rather than a jail roster.
Gloucester County Corrections Division Address and Contact
The Woodbury office remains important for transport, classification and local corrections administration. It is not the place to assume bail can be paid or a routine adult personal visit can occur. The Gloucester bail page states that bail for Gloucester County inmates is accepted at the facility where the inmate is housed, not at Gloucester County Department of Corrections in Woodbury.

Visiting Someone Through Gloucester County Corrections Division
Gloucester County Corrections Division does not publish an active adult jail visitation schedule because adults are not housed locally. For adults, visitors must first identify the current housing facility. Gloucester's male and female offender pages direct visitors and bail questions to Salem County Correctional Facility, Atlantic County Correctional Facility and Essex County Correctional Facility. Gloucester's juvenile offender page directs juvenile visiting and bail questions to Camden County Youth Detention Center and Middlesex County Youth Services.
That routing is important because each facility has its own rules. Salem personal visits have a 90-day incarceration eligibility rule and one personal visit per month. Atlantic requires online signup 48 hours before the inmate's scheduled day and approved visitor list placement. Essex family visitation depends on building assignment, and visitors must use Essex's inmate lookup to locate the person and building before visiting.
| Person's Category | Visiting Route | Gloucester Role |
|---|---|---|
| Adult male | Salem, Atlantic or Essex, depending on current housing | Transport and classification, not local visits |
| Adult female | Salem, Atlantic or Essex, depending on current housing | Transport and classification, not local visits |
| Juvenile | Camden County Youth Detention Center or Middlesex County Youth Services | Juvenile electronic detention may apply by court order |
| State prisoner | NJDOC facility rules | No county jail visit schedule applies |
Mail, Phone, and Money Through Gloucester County Corrections Division
Mail, phone, video and commissary instructions belong to the current housing facility, not to Gloucester County Corrections Division in Woodbury. If the person is at Salem, use Salem's mail, Access Corrections and iWebVisit instructions. If the person is at Atlantic, use Atlantic's inmate services, funds, ConnectNetwork and GettingOut/ViaPath rules. If the person is at Essex, use Essex's mail, funds and visit instructions.
| Need | Correct Route |
|---|---|
| Send mail | Use the mail format published by the current housing facility. |
| Deposit funds | Use the current facility's accepted method and verify fees before payment. |
| Schedule video or phone contact | Use the facility vendor, such as iWebVisit for Salem or GettingOut/ViaPath for Atlantic when applicable. |
| Pay bail | Confirm with the facility where the person is housed; Gloucester says bail is not accepted at Woodbury Corrections. |
Booking and Intake at Gloucester County Corrections Division
Gloucester's Classification Unit is the key local bridge between arrest and regional jail custody. The unit states that all Gloucester County arrestees are transported and admitted into Salem County Jail. Once processed and classified, the person may be transferred to another facility. The unit's work includes video court coordination, inmate housing assignments, inmate programs, inmate time credits, transport requests, parole and work details.
The Gloucester Classification Unit page is the source for the transport and Salem admission rule.
This is the page that prevents the biggest mistake in Gloucester inmate searches: treating 70 Hunter Street as the live adult jail and missing the Salem intake route.
About Gloucester County Corrections Division
The division's current public role is broader than a jail counter. It coordinates transport, classification and related corrections services while Gloucester County relies on regional facilities for physical housing. Gloucester also runs alternatives connected to court orders. The Juvenile Home Electronic Detention Program is a court-ordered alternative monitored 24 hours a day, seven days a week through an ankle device. The Labor Assistance Program is a court-ordered adult alternative that can let participants maintain employment, support family, complete public or nonprofit labor, and address fines, fees or restitution.
Public-record access follows New Jersey OPRA and correctional confidentiality rules. Gloucester County's OPRA form says the custodian is generally required, subject to exceptions, to respond within seven business days. N.J.A.C. 10A:31-6.10 protects certain correctional records, including specified security, visit, phone, email, logbook and surveillance records. A person may be searchable through a facility or court channel while some internal correctional records remain nonpublic.
Note: Confirm the current housing facility before visiting, sending money or paying bail; Gloucester Corrections in Woodbury is not the adult housing site.
