Commercial Linen In Frensham Collected To Schedule

Yes — Frensham sits on the GU10 round, 35.2 miles from our Wembley plant. Alongside them, 1 cafés and 1 pubs and bars are on the same run.

• Shared with Churt, Tilford and Wrecclesham — they sit on the same run, so an extra stop costs us minutes rather than miles — and that is what keeps a small account viable here.
• 7 days collections, in a window agreed when the account opens rather than assigned by a routing system on the morning.
• a 35.2-mile round trip is short enough that a missed collection is recovered on the next run, not the next week.

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. Sorting after the wash is too late; the grease has already moved.
• Marked items are pulled at the check stage so the decision about whether a cloth is still good enough is ours, not yours at 6pm.
• Wax is lifted before wash, not melted through the fabric by a hot cycle, which is what sets it permanently.

Front of house and back of house, one collection. Whites and cloths travel with the tablecloths, on one docket and one bill.

• 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 hiring someone does not mean borrowing a jacket two sizes out.

One contact for all of them. Running several Waverley sites through one account is the common case here, not a special arrangement.

• Each site keeps its own par level. Sites are sized individually, because an average across two very different rooms is wrong for both.
• 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.

Outside service, both ways. The GU10 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, so setup starts with a full cupboard instead of a count of what survived last night.
• If a run is disrupted — a road closure, a breakdown — the plant is 35.2 miles away, so the recovery is a second trip that day, not a note on next week's schedule.

The weekend sets the level. Stock that only just covers midweek runs out exactly when the room is full and nobody has time to notice.

• We count a real week in Frensham — not an estimate, and not the number inherited from whoever quoted before us.
• Reviewed after a full month once there is real data rather than a first guess — at no cost either way.
• Seasonal swing is expected — GU10 trade moves across the year, and the par level should move with it rather than being agreed once and forgotten.

Whichever suits the item. We hire and we wash-only, and the GU10 round does not care which is in the bag.

• Owned stock stays yours. We do not buy it off you at a discount to simplify the paperwork.
• Hire covers replacement — which is usually the larger number over a year, because linen wears out in public.
• Most Frensham accounts run both: hired table linen where volume is high, owned chef whites where the branding matters.

Nothing is too small if you are on the round. Frensham already is, so the question is what you use, not how much.

• Cafés and bars sit alongside restaurants on the same round — the vehicle does not care what is on the sign outside.
• No tie-in and no volume threshold attached to the quote. The price you agree is the price at any volume.
• 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.
