"A space-saver in my Fridge! I can just store sauces and soups without worrying about spillage, either in the fridge or freezer. They save space too and are easy to clean so I can use them over and over again. one of the best eco-friendly things I have ever bought and I will slowly get all of the sizes." - Carmen
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
Orders over $80 will be shipped FREE of charge
Orders over $150 will be shipped Express Post - FREE of charge
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.

End youth sexual abuse
What can $1 do?
41% of sexually active 14–18 year olds in Australia report having 'unwanted' sex. Research shows that adolescent perpetration is higher than ever before, and on the rise. We operate on the belief that the majority of peer-on-peer sexual violence between youth can be prevented with education. We envision a world where the entitlement over another’s body does not outweigh empathy for them. Teach Us Consent aims to eradicate normalised sexual violence through a comprehensive Australia-wide awareness campaign. This campaign will take our digital messaging into physical assets to be implemented across key locations including schools, universities, college campuses, nightlife venues, sports clubs and corporate spaces. Every $1 invested will enable us to reach over 100 individuals with our message, fostering a safer environment through increased awareness and education.
Prevent our extinction crisis
What can $1 do?
Australia is a land of diverse and stunning ecosystems, and home to many unique plants and wildlife. Australia also has the highest mammal extinction rate in the world and is experiencing significant declines of many species. Using science and Indigenous Ecological Knowledge, WWF is rewilding Australia by returning locally-extinct species. Animals like quolls and devils help regulate ecosystems, while bandicoots, potoroos and bettongs are ecosystem engineers - turning over soil, burying leaf litter and supporting seed germination that helps to Regenerate Australia. WWF is committed to reversing the decline of Australia’s wildlife and helping restore biodiversity.
Help achieve independence
What can $1 do?
Dress for Success’ services are more important than ever as women continue to be disproportionally affected by economic downturn. With the costs of living steadily increasing, economic participation is one of the greatest enablers for women to have control over their lives. Moving away from underemployment and unemployment lifts living standards and ensures a secure future as women age. Supporting a woman to lift herself out of hardship and distress, can enable her to build a brighter future for herself and her family. Not just for today, but for the rest of her life.
