The Way we Pack and Ship

I am not at the stage in my business to use pretty ‘Us and The Earth’ branded boxes. Mine come 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.

I recycle. I reuse.

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. 😀 I also use Hero Packaging for smaller products that don't need a box

Here is why I love HERO PACKAGING

1. HEROPACKS are made from home-compostable materials, mainly corn starch and PBAT.
2. They take 90-120 days in your home compost to break down
3. They are an Australian-owned company with similar goals and help loads of businesses to reduce their carbon footprint.

How do you compost the mailers?

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 as “brown” materials. These will completely break down within 90-120 days in a home-compostable environment - sometimes even sooner!
