Hotel Linen In Cripplegate Collected On Round

Yes — Cripplegate sits on the EC2Y round, 8.8 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Bassishaw, Aldersgate and Coleman Street — the same vehicle covers them, which is why we can add a property here without moving anyone else's slot.
• 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.

No minimum. The van is in EC2Y regardless — you are not the reason for the journey.

• Same turnaround regardless of size — small accounts are not queued behind large ones.
• No small-volume premium, and no rounding up to a notional minimum.
• Seasonal properties welcome — no reconnection fee, no renegotiation each spring.
• Nothing to escape from — if it is not working, you say so and we collect our stock. A contract you cannot leave is a contract we would rather not have.

Worked out with your team in advance — we would rather ask twice than guess once.

• Loading bay, service lift or back entrance — recorded against the account so a relief driver has it too.
• Timed around Mansion House so the van is not arriving into the worst of it.
• This is where new suppliers come unstuck — not the laundry, not the van, the door.
• Distance does not appear on the invoice — you are joining an existing journey rather than paying for a new one, which is why a small Cripplegate account is still worth having.
• It is recorded against the account, not a person — access details live on the round sheet, so a stand-in is not knocking on the front door.

At our own plant in Wembley, 8.8 miles from Cripplegate. 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. We would rather show you than write about it.
• Nothing is passed to a third party — we own the plant, so a complaint has one address rather than two.

Either, and you can change later without changing supplier.

• On hire we hold and replace the stock, including the spares you would otherwise be storing.
• Wash-only keeps your linen yours, processed to the same spec.
• Mixed is common — there is no rule that says it has to be one or the other.
• Hire covers replacement — the par level does not quietly drop over a season while nobody is counting.

A linen audit, an agreed par level, and a collection day.

• No tender and no tie-in — you stay because it works, or you leave in a month.
• Par levels set per room type, so housekeeping never opens an empty cupboard.
• The audit is free — most operators find out what they are losing, which is worth the hour on its own.
• Your notice period is our problem, not yours — we work to your notice, not against it.

A standing slot, 7 days — the same time each week, which is the point.

• Same driver each week — familiar faces make short conversations, and short conversations keep the round on time.
• Planned around check-out, not against it — the van should not be waiting on your team.
• Changeable — seasons shift, occupancy shifts, the slot can shift with them.
• If we miss it, we come back — 8.8 miles is close enough that the fix is hours away.

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, with per-site lines, so finance and operations can both use it.
• Par stock tracked per site — so a quiet property does not quietly fund a busy one.
• One invoice, itemised by property — so nobody reconciles it by hand at the end of the month.
