Cotton Buds

Created after founders Viv and Alice discovered that by 2050, there is meant to be more plastic than fish in our oceans. They wanted to make it easy for people to make conscious choices without sacrificing their lifestyle, and 100% of their profits go directly to organisations that protect the planet’s oceans, forests, and wildlife.

Made from compostable bamboo and organic cotton, these sustainable alternatives don’t compromise on quality.

Made ethically in China.

Use just like regular cotton buds, not inserting into the ear. Store in container, away from damp/humid areas.

Re-use the container, these are super handy if you have kids! Otherwise pop it in the home compost or recycling bin.

An easy one to overlook, but we hold shipping to the same standards as every product in your packs. No plastic in the packaging, everything is compostable, and because we use Sendle, we also get carbon neutral shipping too.

How do I track my order?
With every order, you'll receive an email notification with the details to track your parcel. You can also enter your tracking number here https://try.sendle.com/tracking

When will my order arrive?
Generally, we ship within 1-3 business days:

For all orders going to NSW approx. 2 - 5 Business days.
For all orders going interstate approx. 3 - 10 Business days.
For all express orders in Australia – 2 Days.
For all orders going to NZ approx. 10 - 16 Business days.
For all other International orders approx. 10 - 30 Business days.

The estimates of average delivery times are based upon information provided by our shipping carriers. For the most up to date delivery estimate, please check the tracking number found on your shipping confirmation email.

If I place an order that contains 'pre order' and 'in stock' items, will the 'in stock' items be sent separately? Can I split my order?

Unfortunately no. If you order a pre order item with in stock items, your complete order will be sent once ALL items are in stock. If you need to receive items separately, you need to place a separate order, as shipping costs need to be covered.

Please order carefully, as we do not split orders once they have been placed. However, if you've already placed your order and you are desperate for the in-stock item to come first (we get it!), you may be able to pay additional shipping to split your order. Please get in touch with one of our team members and they will assist you.

Thank you for your understanding.

Help, my delivery address is wrong!
We’ve all done it…
Email us straight away and we will see if we can change it! Unfortunately, once your order is picked up by a courier, we cannot change any information. If the parcel is returned to us, we will notify you.

Is it possible my parcel did not arrive?
If you have not received your parcel within 10 days (in Australia) or 30 days (Internationally), please let us know via hello@zilch.store.

What if I was not home when they delivered?
No panic. Our couriers will leave your parcel if they deem it to be safe. If not, they will bring it to your post office or local newsagent. Please check your tracking number that you received via email to see where you can find your parcel (don't forget to check your junk folder too!).
