How do I refill?

Please follow these steps:

  1. Head to shop.reco.net.au.
  2. Add the product you'd like to refill to cart.
  3. At checkout, select the number of jars you'd like to return in the drop-down menu.
  4. Make a payment.
  5. We'll notify you to leave your empty jars outside for refill. Once we collect your emtpy jars, we'll credit your account.
How do I get my store credit?

Once your jar is back in our system, you'll receive a store credit. For every empty jar collected, you'll receive a $2 credit.

After your first refill, you will receive an email to activate your account to use your credit.

Please note we do not give out cash for your empty jars. The reward is a store credit, which you can use for your next refill.

Do I need to wash my empty jars?

No, you don't! We'll wash them altogether. Save water :)

Am I committed to refilling once I make a purchase?

There is no commitment. However, we'd love you to refill - that's the purpose of ReCo. If you decide not to refill anymore, please email us and we'll come and collect your empty jars. Please do not throw them away!

What if I break the jar?

You’re not responsible for any damage to the jar. But please be very careful if you accidentally break them. We do not take any responsibility if you hurt yourself. Keep it away from water to avoid any slipper jar surfaces.

What if I stain the surface where I place the jar?

In very rare circumstances, there might be minor stripping of colours when the jars are placed on wet surfaces, so please keep jar away from water.

We do not take responsibility if you stain your surface.

We're working on our next generation jars, which will be much more durable. We're excited to launch them in 2023.

What if I forget to prepare the empty jar for collection?

You can keep the jar and we’ll collect it in our next delivery. If you must return it, let us know and we’ll organise a collection when we’re in your area.

What if my order has gone missing outside my building?

As you authorise us to leave your order and collect the empty jar outside your building, we do not take any responsibility if anything goes missing. This also means you won't receive the store credit if we can't find your empty jar.
