A possible solution is:

In[1]:= l = {{5, 0}, {4, 1}, {3, 2, 0}, {3, 1, 1}}

Out[1]= {{5, 0}, {4, 1}, {3, 2, 0}, {3, 1, 1}}

In[2]:= Position[l , 0 ]  

Out[2]= {{1, 2}, {3, 3}}

In[11]:= Delete[ l , %2 ]

Out[11]= {{5}, {4, 1}, {3, 2}, {3, 1, 1}}


so you can combine all in your function:

 dropzero[mylist_] := Delete[ mylist , Position[ mylist , 0 ]]
