Towel Service In Custom House On The Leisure Round

Yes — Custom House sits on the E16 round, 7 days, 13.8 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Silvertown, Canning Town and Plaistow — adding you changes the schedule, not the route.
• The driver knows the streets around Canning Town, Royal Victoria and Custom House — the same crew runs it weekly, so nobody is looking for your service entrance.
• A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, because Custom House is only 13.8 miles out.
• 21 clubs and spas around E16 are already on this round — which is why the timings suit an evening peak rather than a hotel check-out.

Towels walk. The question is whether the account expects it.

• 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 — rather than a running balance nobody can reconcile.
• A sudden jump in loss is worth knowing about — and we would rather flag it than absorb it quietly.
• On hire, fair wear is our cost — greying and thinning are ours to replace.

Priced on your peak and your member numbers, not off a rate card. The number follows turnover, not floor area.

• We count a real week in Custom House before quoting — rather than pricing off your last invoice.
• The count includes January — which is the one spike everybody knows is coming and most quotes ignore.
• No minimum order — size barely moves the per-item price.
• The count and the quote cost nothing — and commit you to nothing.

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 Custom House floor at peak tells us more than a year of delivery notes.
• A Monday evening and a Sunday morning are different businesses — and a single number that averages them fails on the busier one.
• January is planned in — the one spike everyone knows is coming is the one worth building into the count.
• If you run short twice, the count is wrong — and correcting it is our job, not a favour.

Both, and mixed accounts are normal. Plenty of Custom House clubs run half and half.

• 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 — the logo matters on a robe, rarely on a sweat towel.
• You can move a line between the two later — it is a change to the sheet, not a new agreement.

Yes. One collection, two specifications. A gym floor wants volume and absorbency; a spa wants handle and appearance.

• 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 — and they are counted separately for the same reason.
• One collection, one invoice — even where the two sides of the building want different specs.
• Hotel spas are a normal account — the bed linen side can go on the same round.

No long-term tie-in and no exit fee. The account should hold because it works, not because leaving is expensive.

• 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 — we will count your peak while you are still under someone else.
• Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — you are never between suppliers.
• If it is not working, say so — we would rather correct the account than lose it.

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 — not as the tail end of a bed linen load.
• Oil needs a different temperature from sweat — one general cycle addresses neither properly.
• Towels that stop absorbing are usually over-softened, not worn out — and the fix costs nothing but a change of classification.
• Every load is temperature logged — which matters if you are ever asked to show how stock is handled.
