What goes wrong

An empty rack at six is the Coombe complaint you hear about

Almost nobody around KT3 changes towel supplier to save money. They change because the same thing went wrong three weeks running.

  • Running out at the evening peak

    Towel demand stacks into roughly two hours rather than spreading across opening. A par count set on a daily average leaves the Coombe rack empty exactly when the floor is busiest.

  • Towels that come back smelling

    Sweat and body oil build up in the fibre and a general wash does not shift them. The towel smells clean cold, then smells again once it is warm and damp — which a member notices before you do.

  • Stock that never quite balances

    Loss is normal and predictable. Pretending otherwise is what turns a towel account into a reconciliation exercise nobody wins.

How it works

Four steps to a Coombe club on the round

Most of the work happens before the first collection. Get the peak-hour count right and the towel rack stops being something the duty manager thinks about.

Serving KT3 Since 2009
  1. The count

    We count at peak because that is the only hour the par level has to survive. Every other hour looks fine on any count.

    An hour, at peak

  2. The round

    Coombe sits 10.1 miles out on the KT3 round, so the drop is timed against your busiest hours rather than the traffic.

    KT3 · 7 days

  3. The switch

    The changeover in Coombe overlaps by design — new stock lands while the old contract is still running.

    No gap in service

  4. The account

    One name, who has seen your floor at peak. Changes get made on a call rather than logged as a ticket.

    One name, not a queue

Running more than one club around Kingston upon Thames? The same account manager covers all of them, on staggered days so no site is left short.

How it is processed

No third party touches Coombe gym towelling

There are two buildings between your towels and ours, and we own both. Coombe collections run 10.1 miles to our Wembley plant. Nothing is passed to a third party in between.

Gym towelling is its own classification. Sweat and body oil need a different wash to bed linen or table linen — get it wrong and the towel smells clean until it warms up.

Changing supplier is not the January risk Coombe clubs think

The reason Coombe operators put up with a supplier they have stopped rating is timing: there is no good week to gamble on towels. That is a scheduling problem, not a reason to stay.

  1. Before you commit

    We count your peak, not your average

    We count the Coombe floor between five and seven rather than take a number off your last invoice — the invoice records what you were sold, not what the rack needed.

  2. The handover

    Stock lands before the old supplier stops

    You are never between suppliers. New stock is on the shelf before the last collection of the old contract.

  3. After

    Par counts adjust once we have seen a month

    First counts are an estimate. After four weeks we set them against what you actually used, including what walked out of the door.

Nothing here needs you to be out of contract first — the count and the quote cost nothing.

Spa robes and folded towels ready for Coombe guests

The week you switch is the week nobody notices.

  • 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
  • LP Laundry has been an absolute game-changer for our 45-room boutique hotel. Turnaround on our bed linens and heavy plush towels is inside 24 hours without a single delay. We could not be happier with the crisp, immaculate finish.
    Charlotte Vance Front of House & Accommodation Manager · 45-room boutique hotel
  • 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
  • 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
  • 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
  • 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.
    Liam Gallagher Operations & Pub Manager · Gastro pub with rooms
  • 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
  • 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.

The area

Coombe — what the round has to work around

An ultra-exclusive residential enclave offering elite privacy and direct access to Richmond Park. Unique to Coombe.

Clubs here sit on the KT3 round, and the hour that matters is the evening peak rather than the morning — Coombe is close enough that a disrupted run is a second trip that day.

Coombe questions, answered

Do you cover Coombe?

Yes — Coombe sits on the KT3 round, 7 days, 10.1 miles from our Wembley plant.

  • Shared with Kingston Vale, Norbiton and New Malden — the same vehicle covers them, so a club here can be added without moving anyone else.
  • The driver knows the streets around New Malden and Norbiton — which matters when the drop has to land before the evening rush.
  • A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, because Coombe is only 10.1 miles out.
  • 9 clubs and spas around KT3 are already on this round — we are not learning the area on your account.
Are robes done differently from gym towels?

Yes. One collection, two specifications. The gym side is judged on whether the rack is full; the spa side on how the robe feels.

  • Robes are laundered to keep their handle — a robe that feels like a gym towel has been washed like one.
  • Bath mats run on a heavier classification — than towelling, and mixing the two shortens the life of both.
  • One collection, one invoice — no second supplier for the spa side.
  • Hotel spas are a normal account — the bed linen side can go on the same round.
Can we leave if it is not working?

No long-term tie-in and no exit fee. Nothing in the agreement is designed to make leaving awkward.

  • Terms flex with seasonal demand — rather than holding you to a January volume through a quiet August.
  • Nothing needs you to be out of your current contract first — there is no cost to finding out.
  • Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — you are never between suppliers.
  • If it is not working, say so — most problems are a wrong par count or a wrong delivery window, and both are fixable without changing supplier.
What stops gym towels smelling?

Because sweat and body oil build up in the fibre and a general wash does not shift them. Cold it is fine; warm and damp it is not, and that is after it has reached a member.

  • Gym towelling runs on its own classification — the programme is chosen for body oil rather than inherited from whatever ran before.
  • Oil needs a different temperature from sweat — softener is the usual culprit: it smells pleasant and stops the towel drying anything.
  • Towels that stop absorbing are usually over-softened, not worn out — which means you are replacing stock that had life left in it.
  • Every load is temperature logged — and the log sits against your account, not a general plant figure.
Who pays for towels that walk?

Every Coombe club loses towels, and an account that pretends otherwise turns into a monthly argument about counts.

  • Expected loss is built into the par count at setup — which is the difference between a working count and an optimistic one.
  • You get the actual numbers each cycle — not a statement that only makes sense to us.
  • A sudden jump in loss is worth knowing about — it usually means a change on the floor rather than a laundry problem.
  • On hire, fair wear is our cost — not a charge back to you.
Do you quote, or work off a tariff?

Priced on your peak and your member numbers, not off a rate card. Two clubs with the same membership can differ twofold in towel usage depending on the floor.

  • We count a real week in Coombe before quoting — including the evening peak, which is where every estimate falls over.
  • The count includes January — a Coombe club quoted off an August week runs short in the month that matters.
  • No minimum order — a small Coombe studio pays the same per towel as a club ten times the size.
  • The count and the quote cost nothing — there is no cost to finding out what it would look like.
Do you count against our busiest hour?

By counting against your peak rather than your daily average. Towel demand does not spread evenly across opening hours — it stacks, and an average hides exactly that.

  • We count on site at the time it matters — an hour on the Coombe floor at peak tells us more than a year of delivery notes.
  • A Monday evening and a Sunday morning are different businesses — the par level has to survive both, so it is set against the worse of the two.
  • January is planned in — a Coombe club in January is not the same club in August, and the account should say so.
  • If you run short twice, the count is wrong — and correcting it is our job, not a favour.
Do you hire towels, or only launder ours in Coombe?

Both, and mixed accounts are normal. One collection covers whichever way each line is set up.

  • Hire — the rack is maintained for you, including the towels that fail first.
  • Wash-only — your own branded stock comes back to you, the same items, not pooled.
  • Most clubs split it — hired gym towels where nobody reads a label, own-branded robes in the spa where the branding is the point.
  • You can move a line between the two later — without reopening the account.

Rewashing Coombe linen is the real environmental cost

Most of the environmental cost of gym towelling is rewashing and replacing it. Getting the classification right the first time does more than any claim on a van.

  • Coombe is a stop on a round that was already running, not a van dispatched for one club.
  • Most towels retired early are over-softened rather than worn out.
  • A greying towel moves to the back of the rotation rather than into a skip.
  • More than 80% of the fleet running into Kingston upon Thames is fully electric.
