Chef Whites In Grazeley Collected To Schedule

Yes — Grazeley sits on the RG7 round, 7 days, 32.9 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Beech Hill, Burghfield and Spencers Wood — adding you changes the schedule, not the route.
• Collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens, because Grazeley is only 32.9 miles out.
• 3 kitchens around RG7 are already on this round — which is why the timings suit prep and service rather than check-out.

Separately, and at its own temperature.

• Grease, protein and scorch need their own wash — and their own temperature.
• Whites never run through the cycle the table linen was on — that transfer is what dulls a brigade's whites inside a month.
• 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.

It is quoted, not tariffed. The number depends on sections and turnover, not on floor area.

• We count a real week in Grazeley before quoting — rather than pricing off your last invoice.
• No minimum order — a two-section Grazeley kitchen is priced per item, same as a brigade of thirty.
• The count includes your busy season — a Grazeley kitchen quoted off a quiet month runs short in the one that matters.
• The count and the quote cost nothing — we will count your week while you are still under someone else.

Yes, and they are not an afterthought on a restaurant round.

• 1 school kitchens around RG7 are already on the round — so term-time volume changes are planned rather than improvised.
• 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 — keep one invoice and one point of contact however many kitchens are on it.

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

• Every section is sized at setup — including the sections that get through two a shift.
• A new commis goes on the account the same week — a phone call to your account manager, not a reorder.
• Garments are named — the rail is ready and nobody is hunting for their size.
• Par counts are re-set after the first month — once we have seen a real Grazeley month rather than a first guess.

That is the point of putting Grazeley on the RG7 round rather than a separate trip.

• 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 — the timing is a property of the account, not of one driver remembering it.

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 — so no Grazeley section starts a shift without whites.
• 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 Grazeley kitchens run half and half.

• Hire — we own the garments, replace them on wear and manage sizing as the brigade changes.
• Wash-only — garment for garment, never substituted.
• Plenty of kitchens do both — the embroidery matters on the jacket, rarely on the oven cloth.
• You can move a line between the two later — kitchens often start on hire and move their jackets across once the branding is settled.
