"Love this box so much. The actual packaging I will keep as the colour glorious! Too good to throw away. I will absolutely use everything inside, the pegs I have wanted for ages and am excited about trying the soap nuts and wool balls and am really loving essential oils." -Jo M.
In this mega laundry kit, I have included the following environmentally friendly products (26 pieces) to get you as sustainable as possible and toxic-free at the same time:
Here is what's in the box:
When you must use the dryer, throw in a few of these 100% organic Merino Wool balls to cut down drying time up to 30% saving a heap of electricity. Add a few drops of your favourite essential oil for amazingly fresh scented laundry.
100% natural, also known as 'soap berries', they grow on trees in the Himalayas and contain saponin which is the foaming agent. Use for toxic free soap by adding 5 berries to the extra drawstring bag and throw into your wash. Add a few drops of pure and natural essential oils also to make sure your clothes smell freshly divine!
- So thrilled to be collaborating with this leading Aussie Essential oil brand that uses native flora to create their sublime oils. We have two in this Eco Laundry Box - 'Eucalyptus Australiana' & 'Eucalyptus LemonBark'. Pop a few drops of either oil into your washing machine when you use the soapberries or onto your wool dryer balls to scent your clothes. Other Uses: Can also be diffused or combined with a carrier oil and used topically. Add a few drops into a bath.
- 16 pegs in a drawstring cotton bag. Created from one piece of Grade 201 stainless steel wire, there are 4 varying sizes from small to extra large. Super strong, durable, recyclable. Strong enough to hang sneakers, delicate enough for underwear and there are no edges to catch fibres to will look after your clothes. A must-have alternative to plastic pegs.
I am not at the stage in my business to use pretty ‘Us and The Earth’ branded boxes. A good portion of mine came from the stash I collect behind my local ‘Kidstuff’ or the supermarket. I have also been known to stop my neighbours on their way to the recycling bin with boxes. That’s just how I roll.
The jewels are on the inside and packed with so much love!! And just in case you are wondering - any bubble wrap used is all recycled too.
The process of delivering a parcel emits carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, which is shown to harm our environment.
We are using Australia Post and Sendle for our shipping delivery
Unlike traditional shipping mailers, these are NOT made from single use plastic. Our mailers are made from 30% plant-based materials such as PLA and 70% from a certified compostable material called PBAT (a synthetic bonding agent).
ANOTHER COOL TIP - YOU CAN REUSE THEM AGAIN
There are 2 sticky strips, so when you receive the mailer, you can cut along the line on the flap and re-use it with the second adhesive (glue) strip. HERO mailers are one of the only ones in the world that have a reusable strip!
To compost them at home, it’s best to remove any labels ( unless they too are compostable), cut them up and place them in your compost bin. These will completely break down within 90-120 days in a home-compostable environment - sometimes even sooner!
Orders are shipped Monday-Friday within 1-2 business days of being placed, often same day, if ordered by 2pm. As I am a small business with school pickups and family stuff I can't always guarantee same day ( but I will try!!)
Deliveries to addresses outside of Australian city metro areas (150km+) may take slightly longer to arrive. On average, you can expect an extra 2-5 business days.
All orders under $80 will be shipped at a $10 Flat Rate

We can ship anywhere in the world and this is calculated at the checkout cart based on location, weight & size of the package. If you would like a quote, please email info@usandtheearth.com and we will calculate this for you.
As soon as you place your order you will receive an order confirmation e-mail to confirm receipt. We will ship your order out within 1-2 business days after receiving it and we will then email you your shipment tracking number so you can easily keep a close eye on when your new item(s) will be with you.
We are not responsible for any customs and taxes applied to your order. All fees imposed during or after shipping are the responsibility of the customer (tariffs, taxes, etc). International orders may incur an import tax.
If you aren't happy then return it. If for any reason you do not absolutely love your eco goodies, we will gladly issue a refund for the value of the merchandise or exchange your items within 30 days of purchase.
