DELIVERY
How much does the delivery cost? Where do you deliver to?

Your order can be delivered in Belgium and Luxemburg. Unfortunately, deliveries outside these countries are not possible yet as we only deliver refrigerated, and we have no logistic partner that can take care of this in other countries.

When you order more than one case, there is no delivery cost. When you proceed to checkout you will be given the exact delivery cost that applies to your order and address.

What are my delivery options?

Packages can only be delivered to your home or work address. You can also pick up your order at our office in Speldenstraat 1, 9000 Gent after sending an email to shop@yugendrinks.com

If you are not at home at the time of delivery, your order will automatically be offered to your neighbors, and you will receive a letter in your mailbox. If your neighbors aren't home, you will also receive a letter and your products will be stored refrigerated with our logistical partner. You will receive a message to choose a new delivery date. If it can’t be delivered the second time, the package will be sent back to us.

How long will delivery take?

Customers should receive their order within 5 working days if the product was in stock on the moment of order. Generally, delivery is within 3 business days. 

I did not receive my order, what should I do?
