Hospitality Linen In Erith Collected On Round

Yes — Erith sits on the DA8 round, 20.6 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Northumberland Heath, Slade Green and Belvedere — one van, one run, which is what keeps the cost of a small account sensible.
• The driver knows the roads around Erith — the same crew runs it each week, so nobody is reading a map on your loading bay.
• A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, because of that distance.

No minimum. Minimums exist to cover a dedicated trip. This is not one.

• Same turnaround regardless of size — small accounts are not queued behind large ones.
• No small-volume premium, which is the part most suppliers will not put in writing.
• Seasonal properties welcome — no reconnection fee, no renegotiation each spring.
• No exit fee either — the arrangement holds because it works, not because it is signed.

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

• Loading bay, service lift or back entrance — whichever actually works for your building, agreed once and then fixed.
• Timed around Erith because that is where the delay actually happens.
• This is where new suppliers come unstuck — a supplier who has not walked the building finds out on your floor, not theirs.
• The mileage is not billed back to you — you are joining an existing journey rather than paying for a new one, which is why a small Erith account is still worth having.
• Relief drivers get the same notes — the arrangement survives a change of driver, which is when most suppliers slip.

At our own plant in Wembley, 20.6 miles from Erith. 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 — ISO 9001 and per-load temperature logs mean something because everything runs through the same building.
• You can visit. It is an hour out of your day and it answers most of the questions on this page.
• One site means one standard — subcontracting is where consistency goes, because the second plant washes to its own schedule rather than to yours.

Both are available, and moving between them does not mean a new account.

• On hire we hold and replace the stock, which takes linen off your balance sheet entirely.
• Wash-only keeps your linen yours, processed to the same spec.
• Mixed is common — hire the towelling, wash-only the bedding.
• Wear and loss sit with us — 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. The nearest hotels we already collect from are the 1 in Belvedere, 1.2 miles away, on the same run.

• 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 and carries no obligation.
• Your notice period is our problem, not yours — if you are tied in, we plan the start date around it. The audit and the plan cost you nothing either way.

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, which keeps dirty linen out of your corridors.
• Changeable — seasons shift, occupancy shifts, the slot can shift with them.
• A missed slot is not a lost week — 20.6 miles is close enough that the fix is hours away.

Yes — most of our multi-site work is in Bexley, and it is where the savings actually are.

• One account manager across every Bexley 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.
• Finance sees one number, each site sees its own — which is what stops one busy property quietly subsidising a quiet one.
