What goes wrong
Three things that cost Brockham cafes a supplier
Almost nobody around RH3 changes linen supplier to save money. They change because the same thing went wrong three weeks running.
-
Deliveries that land after opening
A cafe opens earlier than almost anything else on the street. A drop timed for mid-morning is a drop that missed the shift it was for, and in Brockham that means serving the first hours on yesterday's cloths.
-
Cloths that come back grey
Coffee oil, milk protein and syrup are not the same soil as food service. Washed on a general cycle they build up, whites go dull within weeks, and the counter is where it shows.
-
Running short on the busy day
Par counts set on a quiet Tuesday leave you short on Saturday. Most Brockham cafes are not short of linen overall — they are short of it twice a week.
How it works
Four steps to a Brockham cafe on the round
Most of the work happens before the first collection. Get the count and the timing right and the service stops being something you manage.
-
The count
We look at a real week in Brockham: how many aprons a shift gets through, what is still in the wash when you open, and which two days you run short.
Half an hour, on site
-
The round
The van is already in RH3. Joining that round is what keeps a single-site cafe priced as a stop rather than a journey.
RH3 · 7 days
-
The switch
Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down, so there is never a morning with nothing clean on the shelf.
No gap in service
-
The account
One name, who has seen your counter and knows the RH3 driver. Problems get solved on a call rather than logged.
One name, not a queue
Running more than one site around Mole Valley? The same account manager covers all of them, on staggered days so no site is left short.
How it is processed
Brockham cloths are not subcontracted
There are two buildings between your linen and ours, and we own both. Brockham collections run 22.7 miles to our Wembley plant. Nothing is passed to a third party in between.
Cafe soil is its own problem. Coffee oil, milk protein and syrup need a different wash to food-service linen, so aprons and cloths run on their own classification rather than whatever the machine was doing before.

Changing supplier is not the risk Brockham operators think
Most Brockham cafes stay with a supplier they have stopped rating, because changing one feels like a risk on the one morning you cannot afford it. It is not.
- Before you commit
We count a real week, not an average one
Saturday out, Monday back, and the gap in between. That gap is where every shortage on the account comes from.
- The handover
Stock lands before the old supplier stops
The two contracts overlap on purpose. Brockham gets its first delivery while the old supplier is still collecting, so there is no morning in between.
- After
Par counts adjust once we have seen a month
Month one is a measurement. From month two the Brockham par count reflects your real weekend rather than our opening guess.
Nothing here needs you to be out of contract first — the count and the quote cost nothing.
The week you switch is the week nobody notices.

In clinical and aesthetic practice, hygiene standards have to meet rigorous compliance. High-temperature sanitised gowns, drapes and bed covers arrive reliably every week. I trust their quality control completely.
Dr Elena Rostova Clinic Director · Private healthcare clinic -
For high-end short-stay apartments, guest reviews live and die by linen quality. We get hotel-grade crispness that consistently earns us five-star cleanliness ratings, and the communication lines are short when something needs resolving.
Beatrice Dupont Head of Housekeeping · Luxury serviced apartments -
We use dozens of salon towels and client gowns every day. Stubborn hair dye and product stains come out effortlessly and our capes still look new. They are an indispensable part of the daily flow here.
Chloe St. Laurent Salon Owner & Manager · Hair & beauty salon -
We rely on clean bolster covers, fleece blankets and eye pillows. Delicate fabrics are treated with care while still getting a deep, hypoallergenic sanitisation, and everything comes back beautifully presented.
Hannah Sterling Studio Coordinator · Yoga & pilates studio -
From velvet seat throws to staff aprons and heavy bar towels, our eclectic mix of textiles is handled without fuss. The turnaround times and the account management are what stand out.
Kieran Davies Venue & Hospitality Manager · Boutique cinema & lounge -
As a family-run Victorian B&B we need a partner who understands traditional hospitality. Our heritage cotton sheets are treated with real care, the drivers are friendly and the weekly delivery is consistent.
Arthur Pendelton Proprietor & Manager · Traditional bed & breakfast -
Back-to-back conferences and galas mean huge quantities of table skirts, stage linens and catering napkins at short notice. They have never missed a deadline on any of it.
Danielle Moreau Events Logistics Manager · Corporate event venue -
Grooming generates heavy, fur-filled towels and specialist bedding that a standard machine cannot handle. Everything is collected and returned allergen-free, fluffy and sterilised. Top marks for taking on the difficult jobs.

The area
Brockham, specifically
Picturesque and community-centric; famous for its sprawling village green that hosts world-class cricket and historic festivities. Unique to Brockham.
What makes Brockham its own job is how early it starts. The round is planned so the aprons are on the shelf before the first coffee, not halfway through the morning.

Brockham cafe laundry — the questions we get most
Can you reach Brockham 7 days?
Yes — Brockham sits on the RH3 round, 7 days, 22.7 miles from our Wembley plant.
- Shared with Betchworth, Buckland and Box Hill — adding you changes the schedule, not the route.
- A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, because of that distance.
Our aprons look dull after a month — why?
Coffee oil, milk protein and syrup are not the same soil as food-service linen. A cycle built for table linen leaves them behind.
- Cafe cloths and aprons run on their own classification — not as the tail end of a kitchen load.
- Milk protein needs the right temperature, not just a hotter one — past a point, heat bonds the protein to the cloth.
- Grey whites are usually a wash problem, not an age problem — replacement rate is the clearest signal the classification is off.
Can we leave if it is not working?
No long-term tie-in and no exit fee.
- Terms flex with seasonal demand — Brockham in February and Brockham in July are different businesses, and the account should say so.
- Nothing needs you to be out of your current contract first — we will count your week while you are still under someone else.
- Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — the two overlap by design.
Do you take single-site cafes in RH3?
No minimum, on any line. A one-site independent is the normal shape of a cafe account.
- Small sites go on the same RH3 round — which is why size barely moves the per-item price.
- A dozen aprons and a bundle of tea towels is a real account — not something we surcharge.
- Volume changes are expected — a quiet January in Brockham and a busy July are the same account.
What is the difference between hire and wash-only in RH3?
Both, and mixed accounts are normal. One collection covers whichever way each line is set up.
- Hire — we own the stock, replace it as it wears and keep the par count topped up.
- Wash-only — item for item, never substituted.
- Plenty of cafes do both — hired glass cloths and tea towels, own-branded aprons on wash-only.
Can you cover a busy weekend in Brockham?
Tell your account manager and a missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week.
- If it happens twice, the par count is wrong — we reset it against what you actually used, not what was estimated at setup.
- Most Brockham cafes are not short of linen overall — the weekly total is fine; the weekend distribution is not.
- Seasonal swings are planned in — Brockham in December is not Brockham in February, and the par count should know that.
We serve food as well as coffee — separate account?
No. Kitchen cloths and table linen go on the same RH3 collection and the same invoice.
- No second supplier and no second delivery day — the round does not change when the kitchen opens.
- Chef whites, oven cloths and table linen — all available on the same account, hire or wash-only.
- 1 restaurants around RH3 are on this round too — we are not learning kitchen work on your account.
Can you deliver before we open in Brockham?
Before you open, because that is how the RH3 round is ordered. Cafes open earlier than almost anything else we serve.
- The time is agreed when the account opens — and a relief driver inherits it with the route.
- A mid-morning drop missed the shift it was for. We schedule against your opening time, not ours.
- If a drop is missed, a missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week.
Something specific to your Brockham cafe?
Ask us directlyRewashing Brockham linen is the real environmental cost
Most of the environmental cost of cafe linen is rewashing and replacing it. Getting the classification right the first time does more than any claim on a van.
- Brockham is a stop on a round that was already running, not a van dispatched for one site.
- Cloths that keep their colour get replaced on wear, not on appearance.
- A marked apron is repaired and put back into rotation, not written off.
- More than 80% of the fleet running into Mole Valley is fully electric.
