The BR2 problem
Bromley Common service starts before the doors do
BR2 has its own constraints — access, timing, and the roads around Bromley. A supplier who does not know the area finds that out during your service, not theirs.
-
Deliveries that miss service
One delay around Bromley and the pass is stacked with kitchen cloths nobody can replace.
-
Cloths that go out marked
Kitchen soil is not room soil. Grease needs the temperature and the chemistry to match, or it comes back grey.
-
Par levels set for a quiet week
Chef whites are the first thing to run short and the last thing anyone counts.
How it works
Bromley Common kitchens, from count to round, in four moves
Nothing here needs a decision from you after the first week.
-
What you use in a week
We measure usage rather than ask for it. What a turn costs in cloths is rarely the number on the last supplier's sheet.
Before anything changes
-
Weekend-weighted stock
Stock is weighted to the weekend, because that is the service where running short actually costs you something.
No tie-in to change it
-
Same day, same driver
7 days, at a time agreed with you — a standing slot rather than a window assigned each morning.
Outside service hours
-
Back before the doors
Everything arrives ready to use: linen pressed and counted, whites hung, cloths separated. No unpacking job at the start of a shift.
One invoice, one contact
Running more than one site in Bromley? The same account manager covers all of them, on one invoice and one collection round.
Standards
Bromley Common cloths are washed where we say they are
Nothing leaves the chain. Bromley Common linen travels 18.4 miles to Wembley and back, through a plant we run ourselves.
It also means kitchen soil is treated as kitchen soil — grease, wine and wax on the right programme, not whatever the machine was already running.

Bromley Common handovers happen between services, not during them
Most Bromley Common operators stay with a supplier they have stopped rating, because changing one feels like risking a service. It is the objection we hear most, so here is exactly how it runs.
- Week one
We count a real week, not an average one
An hour in Bromley Common: what goes out on a Saturday, what is still in the wash, what is past saving. You keep every item you own — nothing is bought back or written off to make a contract look neater.
- Week two
Both suppliers run at once
Your current supplier finishes their cycle while the BR2 round starts delivering. For that week you are holding more than you need, which is the point — there is no service you lay up short for.
- Week three
One round, one contact
Collections settle into a standing slot, processed at our own plant rather than passed on. Bickley and Bromley are already collected on the same run, so this is an existing journey rather than a new one.
We do not ask you to break a contract early. If you are tied in, we plan the start date around your notice period.
No Bromley Common guest should ever meet your laundry supplier.

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.
Natasha Petrov Head Groomer & Manager · Pet grooming & daycare -
Table presentation is everything in Mayfair. They handle our heavy cotton damask tablecloths and chef whites with real precision — stains vanish and the starch finish is always spot on. The daily collection has never let us down.
Mateo Rossi Restaurant General Manager · Fine dining restaurant -
Whether we are catering a wedding or a corporate launch, linen presentation has to be immaculate. We get crisp, vacuum-sealed table linens and pristine chef jackets every time — a genuine operational ally.
Julian Bennett Executive Director of Operations · Catering & event production -
Our membership expects discretion and immaculate standards. Dining room linens and guest suites are laundered to a bespoke standard, and the discretion around our account has been absolute.
Alistair Finch Club Secretary & General Manager · Private members' club -
Running a busy dining room alongside eight letting rooms needs a versatile laundry partner. Kitchen aprons, table runners and bed sheets all go in one collection, and the seven-day pickup schedule flexes around us.

About Bromley Common
Bromley Common, specifically
A spacious residential area defined by its expansive common and traditional suburban character. Unique to Bromley Common.
Bromley Common is collected 7 days on a shared round, so a 24-cover room is priced on what it uses rather than on the journey.

Bromley Common questions, answered
Do you already collect from Bromley Common?
10 restaurants in Bromley Common sit inside the area we already collect from, 18.4 miles from our Wembley plant. Alongside them, 10 cafés and 5 pubs and bars are on the same run.
- Shared with Bickley, Bromley and Beckenham — they sit on the same run, so an extra stop costs us minutes rather than miles — and that is what keeps a small account viable here.
- 7 days collections, set once with you, then kept — not re-planned each morning by a scheduling system.
- an 18.4-mile round trip is short enough that a missed collection is recovered on the next run, not the next week.
How do you deal with grease, wine and wax in Bromley Common?
It depends entirely on the mark. Oil, wine and wax behave differently in a wash, and treating them the same is how cloths come back looking tired after a season.
- Items are sorted before washing, not after. Mixing table linen with kitchen cloths is the single fastest way to grey a white.
- Marked items are pulled at the check stage rather than sent back for you to find. Re-treatment first, replacement only if it fails.
- Wax is lifted before wash, not melted through the fabric by a hot cycle, which is what sets it permanently.
Can Bromley Common chef jackets go with the tablecloths?
Yes — and on the same visit. Splitting linen and workwear across two suppliers is how one of them ends up late.
- Whites come back on hangers, sized and named where you want them named, so they go straight to the changing area rather than onto a pile.
- Cloths are bagged by type — glass, oven, waiter — so the right cloth is where it should be before service starts.
- Sizes are held in stock, so a new starter on Monday is not waiting until the following week for a jacket that fits.
We have two kitchens. Does that complicate it?
One account manager, one invoice. Multi-site operators across Bromley are the norm rather than the exception, and the round does not change — only the drop list does.
- Each site keeps its own par level. Sites are sized individually, because an average across two very different rooms is wrong for both.
- Consolidated billing on one invoice, itemised by site — one number for finance, the detail for whoever asks.
- Adding a site later is a change to the drop list, not a new contract or a new supplier relationship.
What time does the van come in Bromley Common?
Before the doors, not during them. The BR2 round is planned around service times, which is the difference between a supplier who works here and one who merely delivers here.
- Deliveries land before the doors open, which is the difference between laying up calmly and laying up at speed.
- If a run is disrupted — a road closure, a breakdown — the plant is 18.4 miles away, so the recovery is a second trip that day, not a note on next week's schedule.
Our Bromley Common covers swing hard. How is stock set?
We size the account on your peak. Averaging a quiet Tuesday with a full Saturday produces a number that is wrong on both nights.
- We count a real week in Bromley Common — covers midweek, covers at the weekend, and how many cloths a turn actually costs you rather than what the last supplier's sheet said.
- Reviewed after a full month once there is real data rather than a first guess — at no cost either way.
- Seasonal swing is expected — BR2 trade moves across the year, and the par level should move with it rather than being agreed once and forgotten.
In Bromley Common, do we have to hire or can you wash our own?
Either, and mixed accounts are normal. Hire from us, or we launder stock you already own — the BR2 round collects both the same way and on the same docket.
- Owned stock stays yours. We do not buy it off you at a discount to simplify the paperwork.
- Hire covers replacement — wear, loss and staining are ours to carry rather than a line that appears on your invoice each quarter.
- Most Bromley Common accounts run both: hired table linen where volume is high, owned chef whites where the branding matters.
We are a 24-cover place — are we too small?
Nothing is too small if you are on the round. Bromley Common already is, so the question is what you use, not how much.
- Cafés and bars sit alongside restaurants on the same round — the vehicle does not care what is on the sign outside.
- No tie-in and no volume threshold — a slow month does not move you onto a worse rate.
- Growing later is a par-level change, not a renegotiation — adding a second flat does not reopen the contract.
- No exit fee. If it is not working, you say so and we collect our stock.
Something specific to your kitchen?
Ask us directlyRewashing Bromley Common linen is the real environmental cost
Most of the environmental cost of restaurant linen is rewashing and early replacement, not the wash itself — a cloth retired at the first oil mark has cost more than one washed twice. In Bromley Common there is a second saving: the kitchens here sit close enough together that one round covers them, instead of separate journeys out from Wembley.
- One BR2 round serves Bromley Common, Bickley and Bromley — 3 areas, one set of miles.
- An 18.4-mile plant distance is the transport cost of every collection here — it is why routing matters more than detergent.
- Closed-loop rinse water — the cheapest litre is the one used twice.
- A re-treated tablecloth costs a fraction of a replacement one, environmentally and otherwise.
