IMPORTANT GENERAL SHIPPING INFORMATION – PLEASE READ BEFORE ORDERING

Please check for your tracking information in your email (or junk mailbox) after placing your order.  Use the tracking number you receive from the carrier to monitor your order.  Monitoring the tracking of your order will help you know when to expect your package so you can be watching for it to help ensure a successful delivery.

If your package does not arrive within 3 days of expected delivery date, contact us IMMEDIATELY.  Failure to contact us within one week of expected delivery date may limit your options for reshipments or refunds.

1. For domestic shipments, we reserve the right to upgrade your mail delivery from USPS to UPS if we feel appropriate.  If you do not want us to change your delivery method please note this in the comment section of your order.
2. Always double-check that your shipping address is entered correctly or you will be responsible for an additional $18 address change fee that we will be charged on your next order.
3. If there are products missing when the order is received, please contact us IMMEDIATELY. Please include pictures of packaging and products.  Failure to contact us within 3 days of delivery may limit your options for reshipments or refunds.
4. New Beginnings is not responsible for the length of delivery time for packages so if you need a package by a certain time, please select expedited delivery services.
5. We are unable to issue refunds for packages that are still in transit.
6. New Beginnings will gladly file a claim with the shipping carrier on your behalf if you have a lost or stolen package but it will be up to the carrier if they will refund the cost of your shipment.  These decisions can take several weeks to get an answer so if you are needing your order before their decision, we suggest placing a new order.

INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING INFORMATION:

DHL provides International shipping TO YOUR DOOR.  Customs may choose to hold your package and it may take as long as 2 weeks for your package to arrive. Please check your email for your tracking # and keep close track of your package. Call your local DHL facility immediately if your package is held up in customs to help facilitate its clearance.

New Beginnings Nutritionals is NOT responsible for duties, taxes, storage fees or transportation fees.  If your package is returned to us for ANY REASON (customs denial, refusal to pay customs fees, incorrect address, or because no one was there to accept the package) you will not be eligible for any refund.

International orders placed that have a value of $2500 or more will incur an additional charge of $15.  Your order will be held until the additional fee is collected.

Please verify with your Customs office whether your country permits the importation of nutritional supplements before ordering.

Shipping prices estimated online for International orders can sometimes vary from the ACTUAL shipping price. The exact ship price will be determined when the order is packed. Any difference in cost will be deducted from or added (and charged) to your order. When $6.00 US or more needs to be added to your shipping cost, a hold will be placed on your order and an email will be sent requesting your authorization to collect additional money.

Probiotic Shipping Policy:

Probiotics being sent within the United States

Because ice packs only last less than ONE DAY, orders containing these products should be sent the fastest way possible.  During excessive heat, probiotics will inevitably arrive warm.  Although exposure to high temperatures for one or more days may slightly reduce the potency of some probiotics, they are still safe for children and adults to take.  Most probiotics contain at least double the amount of live cultures over what is indicated on the label so your probiotic should still be at label potency even after being exposed to heat.

***If the temperature is above 90 degrees please choose UPS Next Day Air shipping options***

If you choose to ship by any other method, New Beginnings cannot guarantee the condition of your supplements when they arrive and refunds or free reships will not be available.  We also reserve the right to hold shipping to help reduce the possibility of your products being compromised if you do not choose priority shipping.  This is true of all supplements during high heat weather over 90 degrees.

USPS is not recommended when shipping probiotics in warm weather.

***USPS may state a 2-day delivery time but they can take 3-7 days or more for delivery ***

New Beginnings will respect your shipping decisions and ship the method you select, but we are not responsible for the condition of the product upon arrival.

Please be advised you will not be able to request a refund due to a probiotic or supplement arriving warm.

Our return policy does not allow any returns on probiotics.

During warm weather months probiotics will only ship Monday thru Wednesday when ground shipping is selected.  If you do not choose priority shipping, we also reserve the right to delay shipping to help reduce the possibility of your products being compromised.
