Hotel Linen In Cheap Collected On Round

Yes — Cheap sits on the EC2V round, 8.9 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Cordwainer, Bread Street and City of London — one van, one run, which is what keeps the cost of a small account sensible.
• The driver knows the roads around Mansion House, Old Street and Bank — 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.

Yes — most of our multi-site work is in City of London, and it is where the savings actually are.

• 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 — so a quiet property does not quietly fund a busy one.
• One invoice, itemised by property — which is what stops one busy property quietly subsidising a quiet one.

No minimum. The round is already passing, which is the whole reason we can say that.

• Same turnaround regardless of size — a six-room guest house gets what a 200-room hotel gets.
• No small-volume premium, and no rounding up to a notional minimum.
• Seasonal properties welcome — no reconnection fee, no renegotiation each spring.
• You can stop — no notice period dressed up as a minimum term.

Agreed before the first collection, not on the morning.

• Loading bay, service lift or back entrance — chosen with housekeeping rather than assumed from the front elevation.
• Timed around Mansion House because that is where the delay actually happens.
• It is the usual failure point — a supplier who has not walked the building finds out on your floor, not theirs.
• Distance does not appear on the invoice — a shared run is what makes 8.9 miles affordable for a property of any size.
• Holiday cover does not reset the arrangement — the arrangement survives a change of driver, which is when most suppliers slip.

At our own plant in Wembley, 8.9 miles from Cheap. No third party, no white-labelling, no surprises about where your linen spent the night.

• 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.
• The chain is short on purpose — subcontracting is where consistency goes, because the second plant washes to its own schedule rather than to yours.

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

• On hire we hold and replace the stock, which takes linen off your balance sheet entirely.
• Wash-only keeps your linen yours, with damaged items flagged rather than quietly retired.
• Mixed is common — most properties end up somewhere between the two.
• Stock ageing is our cost, not yours — 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, worked out from your occupancy rather than a rule of thumb.
• The audit is free — most operators find out what they are losing, which is worth the hour on its own.
• Nothing needs to end first — 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 — so housekeeping hands over to someone who knows the property.
• Planned around check-out, which keeps dirty linen out of your corridors.
• Changeable — seasons shift, occupancy shifts, the slot can shift with them.
• If we miss it, we come back — the plant is 8.9 miles away, so a disrupted run is a second trip rather than a note on next week's schedule.
