Kitchen Linen In Cranleigh Collected To Schedule

Yes — Cranleigh sits on the GU6 round, 7 days, 30.2 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Ewhurst, Dunsfold and Alfold — one van, one run, which is what keeps a small kitchen sensible to price.
• Collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens, which is what 30.2 miles buys you.
• 24 kitchens around GU6 are already on this round — so the vehicle is sized for kitchen work rather than adapted to it.

No long-term tie-in and no exit fee.

• Terms flex with seasonal demand — you are not held to a peak figure through a quiet quarter.
• 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 — so no Cranleigh section starts a shift without whites.
• 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.

Both, and mixed accounts are normal. The two sit on one invoice and one round.

• Hire — we own the garments, replace them on wear and manage sizing as the brigade changes.
• Wash-only — garment for garment, never substituted.
• Plenty of kitchens do both — hire what nobody reads, keep your own name on the whites.
• You can move a line between the two later — kitchens often start on hire and move their jackets across once the branding is settled.

Yes — kitchen soil is classified separately from front of house.

• Grease, protein and scorch need their own wash — one cycle cannot serve all three, which is why a general programme leaves all three behind.
• Whites never run through the cycle the table linen was on — and that separation is the whole reason ours stay white.
• Colour-coded cloths stay in their own classification — through the whole process.
• Every load is temperature logged — which matters on any site that has to show an inspector how its linen is handled.

It is quoted, not tariffed. Kitchen work is priced on the brigade and the covers, so a published list would be a guess.

• We count a real week in Cranleigh before quoting — the invoice tells us what you were sold, not what you used.
• No minimum order — size barely moves the per-garment price.
• The count includes your busy season — which is where most estimates fall over; a figure taken in February will not survive August.
• The count and the quote cost nothing — and commit you to nothing.

Yes. Contract catering, schools and care homes are all on the rounds.

• 8 school kitchens around GU6 are already on the round — we are not learning catering work on your account.
• 2 care home kitchens nearby — with the same named-garment handling.
• Colour-coded cloths and named whites — suit sites that need an audit trail.
• Contract caterers running several sites — keep one invoice and one point of contact however many kitchens are on it.

Sizing is where most kitchen accounts go wrong, so we do it on site.

• Every section is sized at setup — larder and pastry do not wear through jackets at the same rate, and the count reflects that.
• A new commis goes on the account the same week — brigades in Cranleigh change constantly, and the account is built for that.
• Garments are named — the rail is ready and nobody is hunting for their size.
• Par counts are re-set after the first month — against what the brigade actually used, because any opening count is an estimate.

Outside both, because prep is the window most suppliers hit.

• The time is agreed when the account opens — against your service pattern, not ours.
• A drop in the middle of prep is a drop nobody can receive. The round is sequenced around that.
• If a drop is missed, collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens.
• A relief driver inherits the window with the route — so cover weeks do not become the weeks it goes wrong.
