Cafe Linen In Ealing Before You Open

Yes — Ealing sits on the W5 round, 7 days, 3.4 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Acton, West Acton and West Ealing — the same vehicle covers them, which is why a counter here can be added without moving anyone else.
• The driver knows the streets around North Ealing, South Ealing and Ealing Common — route knowledge is most of what separates a kept window from a missed one.
• A missed morning window here is recoverable the same day, because of that distance.

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

• Terms flex with seasonal demand — Ealing in February and Ealing in July are different businesses, and the account should say so.
• Nothing needs you to be out of your current contract first — we will count your week while you are still under someone else.
• Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — you are never between suppliers.

No minimum, on any line. Most of what we collect in W5 is exactly that size.

• Small sites go on the same W5 round — so you are not paying for a dedicated trip into Ealing.
• 56 cafes around W5 are already on it — the vehicle is sized for this kind of work rather than adapted to it.
• Volume changes are expected — we adjust rather than hold you to a winter figure.

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

• Hire — stock, replacement and par management are ours; you never reorder.
• Wash-only — item for item, never substituted.
• Plenty of cafes do both — branding matters on the apron, rarely on the tea towel behind the counter.

Tell your account manager and a missed morning window here is recoverable the same day.

• If it happens twice, the par count is wrong — and resetting it is our job, not a favour.
• Most Ealing cafes are not short of linen overall — they are short of it on two predictable days, which is a counting problem rather than a volume one.
• Seasonal swings are planned in — Ealing in December is not Ealing in February, and the par count should know that.

No. Kitchen cloths and table linen go on the same W5 collection and the same invoice.

• No second supplier and no second delivery day — the round does not change when the kitchen opens.
• Chef whites, oven cloths and table linen — priced per item on the account you already have.
• 79 restaurants around W5 are on this round too — so the food side is not an afterthought here.

Yes — the W5 round is sequenced by opening time. Cafes open earlier than almost anything else we serve.

• The time is agreed when the account opens — and a relief driver inherits it with the route.
• Timed around North Ealing because that is where the delay actually happens.
• If a drop is missed, a missed morning window here is recoverable the same day.

It is the wash, not the cloth. A cycle built for table linen leaves them behind.

• Cafe cloths and aprons run on their own classification — rather than whatever the machine was doing before.
• Milk protein needs the right temperature, not just a hotter one — past a point, heat bonds the protein to the cloth.
• Grey whites are usually a wash problem, not an age problem — replacement rate is the clearest signal the classification is off.
