What goes wrong
Towel demand in Epsom is not spread across the day
Almost nobody around KT18 changes towel supplier to save money. They change because the same thing went wrong three weeks running.
-
Running out at the evening peak
Towel demand stacks into roughly two hours rather than spreading across opening. A par count set on a daily average leaves the Epsom rack empty exactly when the floor is busiest.
-
Towels that come back smelling
Sweat and body oil build up in the fibre and a general wash does not shift them. The towel smells clean cold, then smells again once it is warm and damp — which a member notices before you do.
-
Stock that never quite balances
Loss is normal and predictable. Pretending otherwise is what turns a towel account into a reconciliation exercise nobody wins.
How it works
Four steps, and the Epsom rack stops being your problem
Most of the work happens before the first collection. Get the peak-hour count right and the towel rack stops being something the duty manager thinks about.
-
The count
An hour on the Epsom floor at the time it actually matters. The number that matters is the five-to-seven number, not the daily one.
An hour, at peak
-
The round
The van is already in KT18. Joining that round is what keeps a single studio priced as a stop rather than a journey.

The switch
The changeover in Epsom overlaps by design — new stock lands while the old contract is still running.
No gap in service
-
The account
The same person handles Epsom every week, which is why a change to your par count does not need explaining twice.
One name, not a queue
Running more than one club around Epsom and Ewell? The same account manager covers all of them, on staggered days so no site is left short.
How it is processed
Epsom towels are not subcontracted
There are two buildings between your towels and ours, and we own both. Epsom collections run 15.8 miles to our Wembley plant. Nothing is passed to a third party in between.
Softener is the usual culprit behind a towel that stops absorbing: it coats the fibre. Gym stock runs without it, which is why ours keeps drying rather than smearing.

Switching supplier in Epsom without an empty rack
Most Epsom clubs stay with a supplier they have stopped rating, because changing one feels like a risk in the week membership is highest. It is not.
- Before you commit
We count your peak, not your average
An hour on site at the time it actually matters. Towel demand stacks into two hours, and an average hides exactly that.
- The handover
Stock lands before the old supplier stops
The two contracts overlap on purpose, so no Epsom evening is covered by rationing what is left on the rack.
- After
Par counts adjust once we have seen a month
Month one is a measurement. From month two the par count reflects your real peak and your real shrinkage rather than an opening guess.
Nothing here needs you to be out of contract first — the count and the quote cost nothing.
The week you switch is the week nobody notices.

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 -
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.
Arthur Pendelton Proprietor & Manager · Traditional bed & breakfast -
Back-to-back conferences and galas mean huge quantities of table skirts, stage linens and catering napkins at short notice. They have never missed a deadline on any of it.
Danielle Moreau Events Logistics Manager · Corporate event venue -
Grooming generates heavy, fur-filled towels and specialist bedding that a standard machine cannot handle. Everything is collected and returned allergen-free, fluffy and sterilised. Top marks for taking on the difficult jobs.
Natasha Petrov Head Groomer & Manager · Pet grooming & daycare -
Whether we are catering a wedding or a corporate launch, linen presentation has to be immaculate. We get crisp, vacuum-sealed table linens and pristine chef jackets every time — a genuine operational ally.
Julian Bennett Executive Director of Operations · Catering & event production -
Our membership expects discretion and immaculate standards. Dining room linens and guest suites are laundered to a bespoke standard, and the discretion around our account has been absolute.
Alistair Finch Club Secretary & General Manager · Private members' club -
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.

About Epsom
Why Epsom is collected the way it is
A bustling metropolitan town world-famous for its racing heritage and elegant parkland. Unique to Epsom.
Clubs here sit on the KT18 round, and the hour that matters is the evening peak rather than the morning — Epsom is close enough that a disrupted run is a second trip that day.

Asked most often about Epsom towel accounts
Do you cover Epsom?
Yes — Epsom sits on the KT18 round, 7 days, 15.8 miles from our Wembley plant.
- Shared with Ewell, Ashtead and Malden Rushett — the same vehicle covers them, so a club here can be added without moving anyone else.
- The driver knows the streets around Epsom — route knowledge is most of what separates a kept window from a missed one.
- A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, which is what 15.8 miles buys you.
- 8 clubs and spas around KT18 are already on this round — we are not learning the area on your account.
Can we leave if it is not working?
No long-term tie-in and no exit fee. Nothing in the agreement is designed to make leaving awkward.
- 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 — the count and the quote commit you to nothing.
- Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — the two overlap by design.
- If it is not working, say so — the fix is usually a number on the sheet rather than a new contract.
What stops gym towels smelling?
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 — Epsom towels are classified for the soil they actually carry.
- Oil needs a different temperature from sweat — softener is the usual culprit: it smells pleasant and stops the towel drying anything.
- 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 — and the log sits against your account, not a general plant figure.
Who pays for towels that walk?
Every Epsom club loses towels, and an account that pretends otherwise turns into a monthly argument about counts.
- 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 — not a statement that only makes sense to us.
- 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.
Do you quote, or work off a tariff?
There is no honest price list for towel work. The number follows turnover, not floor area.
- We count a real week in Epsom before quoting — the invoice records what you were sold, not what you used.
- The count includes January — peak months are the ones the par count has to survive.
- No minimum order — a small Epsom studio pays the same per towel as a club ten times the size.
- The count and the quote cost nothing — including while you are still under contract elsewhere.
Do you count against our busiest hour?
By counting against your peak rather than your daily average. Every other hour looks fine on any count, which is why averages keep passing and racks keep emptying.
- We count on site at the time it matters — an hour on the Epsom 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.
Do you hire towels, or only launder ours in Epsom?
Both, and mixed accounts are normal. The two sit on one invoice and one round.
- Hire — the rack is maintained for you, including the towels that fail first.
- Wash-only — the same towels that left Epsom, never swapped into general stock.
- Most clubs split it — the logo matters on a robe, rarely on a sweat towel.
- You can move a line between the two later — clubs often start on hire and move the spa side across once branding is settled.
Are robes done differently from gym towels?
Yes — a gym floor and a spa want opposite things from a towel. The gym side is judged on whether the rack is full; the spa side on how the robe feels.
- 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 — than towelling, and mixing the two shortens the life of both.
- One collection, one invoice — the split is in the classification, not in the account.
- Hotel spas are a normal account — the bed linen side can go on the same round.
Something specific to your Epsom club?
Ask us directlyGetting it right first time in Epsom
Most of the environmental cost of gym towelling is rewashing and replacing it. Getting the classification right the first time does more than any claim on a van.
- One vehicle covers KT18, so adding Epsom adds a stop rather than a journey.
- Towelling washed without softener keeps absorbing, so it is replaced on wear rather than on feel.
- A greying towel moves to the back of the rotation rather than into a skip.
