Frequently Asked Questions

What’s in your boxes? I can’t seem to find a list of products on your website.

That’s because we don’t want to ruin the surprise!

We can tell you that every month inside the monthly Vegan Box (and gift box) you’ll find a combination of 5 – 8 items, mostly snacks, and occasionally superfoods, skincare and lifestyle products in a combination of full size, travel size and sample sizes valued at over $30.

Inside the bi-monthly Beauty Box (and gift box) you’ll find 5 to 8 of the best new natural, skin-loving goodies, ranging from full size, sample size and travel sized items, and is always valued at over $70. No parabens, phthalates, petrochemicals, paraffin, lead, SLS, PABA….. or other dodgy ingredients you can’t pronounce. Valued at over $70.

All of our boxes are great value for money, as well as being super convenient and fun!

Please note – whilst all of the products we feature are vegan, some products may have been made in facilities that use shared equipment – resulting in possible trace amounts of dairy/eggs (as many businesses do not have the luxury of owning vegan equipment) and you will see “may contain” cautions on their labelling – if this is an issue for you please contact us and we will substitute such products in your order if an alternative is available.

Do you cater for nut free/soy free/allergy diets?

Whilst we can make assurances that all our products are 100% vegan and where requested gluten free, we cannot ensure that boxes are free of any other allergens, such as nuts / soy / coconut etc.

What Our Customers Say

I absolutely LOVE The Vegan Box. Every month I am surprised with delicious vegan & cruelty free items that I never would have known about or found myself. When it arrives in the mail, I just can’t wait to open it. The variety from month to month is amazing, from tasty savoury snacks to sweet treats and vegan home and body products. I LOVE THE VEGAN BOX!

Sylvia - Perth Vegan Eats

These boxes are always more value for money and we highly recommend them to anybody who is interested in trailing new products in the vegan world, or even just getting a bunch of lovely things on your doorstep each month. Not to mention they are a great gift idea for loved ones!

Amy Sinclair - The Lush Scoop

I kind of feel like it’s my birthday every time I receive my monthly Vegan Box and it’s always so much fun to open it and see what surprises are inside. It’s always got new products that I haven’t tried before and it’s such a great way to try new vegan snacks I otherwise wouldn’t even know about.

Miriam - Meals by Miri

I know I say this every time, but truthfully when I first opened up the Autumn Vegan Beauty Box I was blown away by how gorgeous this one was. Imagine yourself seeing the contents of that briefcase in Pulp Fiction. The golden glow. You’re transfixed by its beauty.
Finding cruelty free, vegan and palm oil free beauty products can be a hard task at the best of times and I can’t recommend enough to try The Vegan Box if you haven’t already. All of the hard work is done for you, wrapped up and delivered straight to your door.

Cornelia - Live Wild, Be Free

The Vegan Box is the perfect gift for the new vegan to introduce them to the range of awesome products out there or the expert vegan who likes to keep up to date with new and exciting treats. Or, if you’re like me and love getting mail, it’s the perfect gift for yourself!

Chelsey - Like A Vegan

Deliveries from @theveganbox. This seriously the best idea for any new vegans! You get a sample of all different healthy vegan foods & snacks & they ship worldwide! My favourite was the "cheezy" vegan sauce
