The RG14 problem

Donnington covers do not wait for a laundry van

RG14 has its own constraints — access, timing, and the roads around West Berkshire. A supplier who does not know the area finds that out during your service, not theirs.

  • Late drops before a full book

    A late run near West Berkshire means napkins arrive while the first covers are already seated.

  • Linen the customer notices

    A creased cloth is a two-second judgement made before anyone has read the menu.

  • Running out on a Friday

    Chef whites are the first thing to run short and the last thing anyone counts.

From first call to first collection in Donnington

Set up once in Donnington, then stop thinking about it

Most of the work happens before the first collection, and most of it is ours.

Serving RG14 Since 2009
  1. Covers, not guesswork

    We measure usage rather than ask for it. What a turn costs in cloths is rarely the number on the last supplier's sheet.

  2. Stock set to your week

    Stock is weighted to the weekend, because that is the service where running short actually costs you something.

  3. Your place on the round

    Collections settle into a window that sits outside service — not a two-hour promise that lands mid-lunch.

  4. Back before the doors

    Everything arrives ready to use: linen pressed and counted, whites hung, cloths separated. No unpacking job at the start of a shift.

    Every load logged

Running more than one site in West Berkshire? The same account manager covers all of them, on one invoice and one collection round.

How it is processed

Donnington linen is not subcontracted

Your cloths go to one place — a plant in Wembley, 46.2 miles from Donnington, owned and staffed by us rather than rented capacity somewhere else.

It also means kitchen soil is treated as kitchen soil — grease, wine and wax on the right programme, not whatever the machine was already running.

Collections into Donnington run on the RG14 round, to plants we own and run.

Donnington handovers happen between services, not during them

Most Donnington operators stay with a supplier they have stopped rating, because changing one feels like risking a service. It is the objection we hear most, so here is exactly how it runs.

  1. Week one

    An hour on site, before anything changes

    An hour in Donnington: what goes out on a Saturday, what is still in the wash, what is past saving. You keep every item you own — nothing is bought back or written off to make a contract look neater.

  2. Week two

    You carry too much linen for a week, on purpose

    Your current supplier finishes their cycle while the RG14 round starts delivering. For that week you are holding more than you need, which is the point — there is no service you lay up short for.

  3. From then on

    One round, one contact

    Collections settle into a standing slot, processed at our own plant rather than passed on. Bagnor and Newbury are already collected on the same run, so this is an existing journey rather than a new one.

No exit fee, no buy-back, no minimum term to escape from. If your notice runs to March, we start in March.

  • Running a high-end spa means going through hundreds of bathrobes and spa towels daily. Our rotation stays fully stocked with exceptionally soft, hygienically pristine textiles. Guest comfort has noticeably improved since we switched.
    Siobhan O'Connor Spa Operations Director · Luxury health club & spa
  • Our members expect fresh sweat towels immediately after back-to-back spinning classes. They handle our daily volume seamlessly, and I would single out the punctuality and the clean, long-lasting scent of the eco-friendly detergents.
    Marcus Thorne Studio Manager · Boutique fitness studio
  • 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
  • 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
  • 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
  • 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
  • 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.
    Kieran Davies Venue & Hospitality Manager · Boutique cinema & lounge
  • As a family-run Victorian B&B we need a partner who understands traditional hospitality. Our heritage cotton sheets are treated with real care, the drivers are friendly and the weekly delivery is consistent.

About Donnington

Donnington, specifically

A historic village overlooking Newbury, famous for its landmark castle and elite parkland. Unique to Donnington.

Donnington is collected 7 days on a shared round, so a 24-cover room is priced on what it uses rather than on the journey.

Donnington questions, answered

Do you already collect from Donnington?

8 restaurants in Donnington sit inside the area we already collect from, 46.2 miles from our Wembley plant. Alongside them, 9 cafés and 6 pubs and bars are on the same run.

  • Shared with Bagnor, Newbury and Winterbourne — one vehicle covers them, which is why we can add a kitchen here without adding a journey, and why the price does not carry a delivery surcharge.
  • 7 days collections, set once with you, then kept — not re-planned each morning by a scheduling system.
  • a 46.2-mile round trip means a problem is a second trip that day rather than a note on next week's sheet.
What happens to stained napkins from a Donnington service?

It depends entirely on the mark. Oil, wine and wax behave differently in a wash, and treating them the same is how cloths come back looking tired after a season.

  • Items are sorted before washing, not after. A tablecloth and an oven cloth never share a load — that is how cloths come back grey.
  • Marked items are pulled at the check stage rather than sent back for you to find. Re-treatment first, replacement only if it fails.
  • Wax is lifted before wash, because heat drives it into the weave and fixes it there for good.
Do you do chef whites as well as table linen in Donnington?

Yes — and on the same visit. Splitting linen and workwear across two suppliers is how one of them ends up late.

  • Whites come back on hangers, ready to hang up — which is the only state a chef jacket is useful in.
  • Cloths are bagged by type — glass, oven, waiter — because sorting a mixed bag at 5pm is nobody's job.
  • Sizes are held in stock, so a new starter on Monday is not waiting until the following week for a jacket that fits.
We have two kitchens. Does that complicate it?

One account manager, one invoice. Multi-site operators across West Berkshire are the norm rather than the exception, and the round does not change — only the drop list does.

  • Each site keeps its own par level. A 30-cover bistro and a 200-cover brasserie should not carry the same stock, and averaging them is how one site runs short every weekend.
  • Consolidated billing with a per-site breakdown, so a head office sees one number and each kitchen still sees its own.
  • Adding a site later is a change to the drop list, not a new contract or a new supplier relationship.
What time does the van come in Donnington?

Outside service, both ways. The RG14 slot is agreed before the account opens and does not move week to week — it is a fixed place on a round, not a two-hour window that lands mid-lunch.

  • Deliveries land before the doors open, which is the difference between laying up calmly and laying up at speed.
  • If a run is disrupted — a road closure, a breakdown — a 46.2-mile plant means the fix is hours away rather than days.
Our Donnington covers swing hard. How is stock set?

Par is set to your busiest service, not your average one. A stock level built around a Tuesday fails on a Saturday, which is the night it matters.

  • We count a real week in Donnington — not an estimate, and not the number inherited from whoever quoted before us.
  • Reviewed after a full month of live usage and adjusted, with no renegotiation and no change fee.
  • Seasonal swing is expected — RG14 trade moves across the year, and the par level should move with it rather than being agreed once and forgotten.
In Donnington, do we have to hire or can you wash our own?

Whichever suits the item. We hire and we wash-only, and the RG14 round does not care which is in the bag.

  • Owned stock stays yours. What you bought, you keep — including the items we would not have chosen.
  • Hire covers replacement — which is usually the larger number over a year, because linen wears out in public.
  • Most Donnington accounts run both: hired table linen where volume is high, owned chef whites where the branding matters.
We are a 24-cover place — are we too small?

No minimum order. Donnington is already on the round, so a small account costs us a stop rather than a journey — which is exactly why some suppliers quote a minimum here and we do not.

  • Cafés and bars sit alongside restaurants and are priced the same way: on usage, not on category.
  • No tie-in and no volume threshold — a slow month does not move you onto a worse rate.
  • Growing later is a par-level change, not a renegotiation — adding a second flat does not reopen the contract.
  • No exit fee. If it is not working, you say so and we collect our stock.

Something specific to your kitchen?

The greenest wash is the one Donnington does not repeat

Most of the environmental cost of restaurant linen is rewashing and early replacement, not the wash itself — a cloth retired at the first oil mark has cost more than one washed twice. In Donnington there is a second saving: the kitchens here sit close enough together that one round covers them, instead of separate journeys out from Wembley.

  • One RG14 round serves Donnington, Bagnor and Newbury — 3 areas, one set of miles.
  • A 46.2-mile plant distance is the transport cost of every collection here — it is why routing matters more than detergent.
  • Water from the final rinse is recovered and feeds the next wash rather than the drain.
  • Stained napkins are worked on twice before they leave the count — replacement is the last resort.
