Hotel Linen In Bridge Collected On Round

Yes — Bridge sits on the EC3R round, 9.2 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Candlewick, Dowgate and Billingsgate — the same vehicle covers them, which is why we can add a property here without moving anyone else's slot.
• The driver knows the roads around Mansion House, Bank and Barbican — which sounds trivial until a supplier who does not misses a morning.
• A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, because of that distance.

No minimum. The van is in EC3R regardless — you are not the reason for the journey.

• Same turnaround regardless of size — the process does not know how many rooms you have.
• No small-volume premium, which is the part most suppliers will not put in writing.
• Seasonal properties welcome — collections pause and restart without closing the account.
• No exit fee either — the arrangement holds because it works, not because it is signed.

Agreed before the first collection, not on the morning.

• Loading bay, service lift or back entrance — recorded against the account so a relief driver has it too.
• Timed around Mansion House and the traffic that comes with it.
• Nine times in ten, a missed first collection is an access problem — not the laundry, not the van, the door.
• Distance does not appear on the invoice — you are joining an existing journey rather than paying for a new one, which is why a small Bridge account is still worth having.
• It is recorded against the account, not a person — the arrangement survives a change of driver, which is when most suppliers slip.

At our own plant in Wembley, 9.2 miles from Bridge. One building, ours, every load.

• A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week.
• One process, one audit — traceability only works when there is one chain to trace.
• You can visit. It is an hour out of your day and it answers most of the questions on this page.
• Nothing is passed to a third party — we own the plant, so a complaint has one address rather than two.

Whichever suits the property — and it can change as the property does.

• On hire we hold and replace the stock, so nothing is tied up in sheets.
• Wash-only keeps your linen yours, useful where the stock is branded or a particular weave.
• Mixed is common — hire the towelling, wash-only the bedding.
• Wear and loss sit with us — you stop budgeting for replacement stock, because replacement is the point of hire.

A linen audit, an agreed par level, and a collection day.

• No tender and no tie-in — a contract only protects a supplier who expects the service to slip.
• Par levels set per room type, so housekeeping never opens an empty cupboard.
• The audit is free and you keep the numbers whether or not you use us.
• Your notice period is our problem, not yours — if you are tied in, we plan the start date around it. The audit and the plan cost you nothing either way.

A standing slot, 7 days — fixed, not 'sometime that morning'.

• Same driver each week — familiar faces make short conversations, and short conversations keep the round on time.
• Planned around check-out, so linen leaves as rooms are stripped.
• Changeable — if the time stops suiting you we move it.
• A missed slot is not a lost week — 9.2 miles is close enough that the fix is hours away.

Yes, and it is usually cheaper and simpler than separate accounts.

• One account manager across every City of London site.
• One invoice, broken down per property so you can still see where it goes.
• Par stock tracked per site — the usual multi-property problem is linen drifting between buildings and being paid for twice.
• Consolidated billing with a per-site breakdown — the total and the split, on the same document.
