Chef Whites In Grayswood Collected To Schedule

Yes — Grayswood sits on the GU27 round, 7 days, 35.9 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Haslemere, Hindhead and Chiddingfold — adding you changes the schedule, not the route.
• Collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens, which is what 35.9 miles buys you.
• 3 kitchens around GU27 are already on this round — which is why the timings suit prep and service rather than check-out.

Yes. Contract catering, schools and care homes are all on the rounds.

• 2 school kitchens around GU27 are already on the round — we are not learning catering work on your account.
• Term-time and seasonal swings are planned in — rather than handled as emergencies.
• Colour-coded cloths and named whites — suit sites that need an audit trail.
• Contract caterers running several sites — are handled as one account across Waverley, not as separate customers.

Sizing is where most kitchen accounts go wrong, so we do it on site.

• Every section is sized at setup — larder and pastry do not wear through jackets at the same rate, and the count reflects that.
• A new commis goes on the account the same week — rather than waiting for an order cycle.
• Garments are named — the rail is ready and nobody is hunting for their size.
• Par counts are re-set after the first month — and again after your first busy season, which is where opening figures usually fail.

Outside both, because prep is the window most suppliers hit.

• The time is agreed when the account opens — against your service pattern, not ours.
• A drop in the middle of prep is a drop nobody can receive. The round is sequenced around that.
• If a drop is missed, collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens.
• A relief driver inherits the window with the route — so cover weeks do not become the weeks it goes wrong.

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

• Terms flex with seasonal demand — you are not held to a peak figure through a quiet quarter.
• Nothing needs you to be out of your current contract first — we will size your brigade while you are still under someone else.
• Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — you are never between suppliers.
• If it is not working, say so — most problems are a wrong par count or a wrong delivery window, and both are fixable without changing supplier.

Both, and mixed accounts are normal. Plenty of Grayswood kitchens run half and half.

• Hire — the rail is maintained for you, including the jackets that scorch first.
• Wash-only — garment for garment, never substituted.
• Plenty of kitchens do both — hire what nobody reads, keep your own name on the whites.
• You can move a line between the two later — kitchens often start on hire and move their jackets across once the branding is settled.

Always. Kitchen work never follows table linen through the machine.

• Grease, protein and scorch need their own wash — grease lifts at a different temperature from protein, and scorch responds to neither.
• Whites never run through the cycle the table linen was on — and that separation is the whole reason ours stay white.
• Colour-coded cloths stay in their own classification — which matters on any site that needs an audit trail.
• Every load is temperature logged — so there is a record behind the classification rather than an assurance.

There is no honest price list for kitchen work. Kitchen work is priced on the brigade and the covers, so a published list would be a guess.

• We count a real week in Grayswood before quoting — the invoice tells us what you were sold, not what you used.
• No minimum order — size barely moves the per-garment price.
• The count includes your busy season — which is where most estimates fall over; a figure taken in February will not survive August.
• The count and the quote cost nothing — and commit you to nothing.
