What goes wrong
Towel demand in Farncombe is not spread across the day
Clubs in Farncombe rarely leave a supplier over price. They leave after a run of evenings where the rack was empty at peak, or a batch came back smelling of damp.
-
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 Farncombe rack empty exactly when the floor is busiest.
-
Towels that come back smelling
A towel can pass inspection dry and fail it in use. Oil left in the fibre only announces itself once the towel warms up, which is after it has reached a member.
-
Stock that never quite balances
Towels walk. Every Farncombe club loses some, and an account that does not plan for shrinkage turns into a monthly argument about counts.
How it works
Four steps to a Farncombe club on the round
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 Farncombe 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
Farncombe sits 29.0 miles out on the GU7 round, so the drop is timed against your busiest hours rather than the traffic.
GU7 · 7 days
-
The switch
You are never between suppliers, and no evening is covered by rationing towels.
No gap in service
-
The account
The same person handles Farncombe 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 Waverley? The same account manager covers all of them, on staggered days so no site is left short.
How it is processed
Nothing from Farncombe leaves our own plants
There are two buildings between your towels and ours, and we own both. Farncombe collections run 29.0 miles to our Wembley plant. Nothing is passed to a third party in between.
What comes off a Farncombe gym floor is not what comes off a hotel bed. Body oil needs its own temperature and no softener, so towelling is classified separately rather than run at the tail of a linen load.

Switching supplier in Farncombe without an empty rack
Most Farncombe 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
We count the Farncombe floor between five and seven rather than take a number off your last invoice — the invoice records what you were sold, not what the rack needed.
- The handover
Stock lands before the old supplier stops
You are never between suppliers. New stock is on the shelf before the last collection of the old contract.
- 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.

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.
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 -
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.

Local knowledge
Farncombe — what the round has to work around
A friendly residential village between Godalming and Guildford with a strong local spirit. Unique to Farncombe.
Farncombe is collected 7 days on a shared round, so a single studio here costs a stop rather than a journey.

Farncombe towel service — the questions we get most
Can you reach Farncombe 7 days?
Yes — Farncombe sits on the GU7 round, 7 days, 29.0 miles from our Wembley plant.
- Shared with Godalming, Busbridge and Artington — adding you changes the schedule, not the route.
- The driver knows the streets around Farncombe and Godalming — the same crew runs it weekly, so nobody is looking for your service entrance.
- Collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens, which is what 29.0 miles buys you.
- 5 clubs and spas around GU7 are already on this round — so the vehicle is sized for towel volume rather than adapted to it.
What is the difference between hire and wash-only in GU7?
Both, and mixed accounts are normal. One collection covers whichever way each line is set up.
- Hire — stock, replacement and shrinkage planning are ours; you never reorder.
- Wash-only — your own branded stock comes back to you, the same items, not pooled.
- Most clubs split it — hire what nobody looks at, keep your own name on what a member wears.
- You can move a line between the two later — clubs often start on hire and move the spa side across once branding is settled.
Can wet-area mats go on the same collection?
Yes — a gym floor and a spa want opposite things from a towel. A gym floor wants volume and absorbency; a spa wants handle and appearance.
- Robes are laundered to keep their handle — softness is the point on a robe, and it is achieved by the wash rather than by softener.
- Bath mats run on a heavier classification — because wet-area linen takes a different kind of soil.
- 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.
Are we tied into a long contract?
No long-term tie-in and no exit fee. Nothing in the agreement is designed to make leaving awkward.
- Terms flex with seasonal demand — Farncombe in January and Farncombe in August are different clubs, and the account should say so.
- 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 — we would rather correct the account than lose it.
Why do towels smell clean but go damp-smelling later?
It is oil left in the fibre, not the towel being old. The towel smells fine cold and dry, then smells again once it is warm and damp — which a member notices before you do.
- Gym towelling runs on its own classification — the programme is chosen for body oil rather than inherited from whatever ran before.
- 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 — which matters if you are ever asked to show how stock is handled.
How do you handle shrinkage?
Every Farncombe 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 — rather than discovered in month three.
- You get the actual numbers each cycle — in and out, per collection, so the figure is checkable.
- A sudden jump in loss is worth knowing about — it usually means a change on the floor rather than a laundry problem.
- On hire, fair wear is our cost — greying and thinning are ours to replace.
Is there a price list for towel hire?
There is no honest price list for towel work. Towel volume depends on member numbers and how hard the floor turns over, so a published list would be wrong for most clubs.
- We count a real week in Farncombe before quoting — including the evening peak, which is where every estimate falls over.
- The count includes January — a Farncombe club quoted off an August week runs short in the month that matters.
- No minimum order — size barely moves the per-item price.
- The count and the quote cost nothing — and commit you to nothing.
How is the par count set for a Farncombe club?
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 Farncombe 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.
Something specific to your Farncombe club?
Ask us directlyGetting it right first time in Farncombe
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.
- The GU7 round is a shared journey rather than a separate trip to Farncombe.
- Towelling washed without softener keeps absorbing, so it is replaced on wear rather than on feel.
- Stock is graded and rotated instead of written off at the first mark.
- More than 80% of the fleet running into Waverley is fully electric.
