Commercial Linen In Hainault On The Morning Round

Yes — Hainault sits on the IG6 round, 7 days, 16.5 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Fullwell Cross, Clayhall and Aldborough Hatch — one van, one run, which is what keeps a single-site account sensible to price.
• The driver knows the streets around Fairlop, Grange Hill and Hainault — which matters more at seven in the morning than it does at eleven.
• A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, because Hainault is only 16.5 miles out.

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

• Terms flex with seasonal demand — Hainault in February and Hainault in July are different businesses, and the account should say so.
• Nothing needs you to be out of your current contract first — we will count your week while you are still under someone else.
• Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — the two overlap by design.

No minimum, on any line. Most of what we collect in IG6 is exactly that size.

• Small sites go on the same IG6 round — the journey is already happening; you are a stop on it.
• 2 cafes around IG6 are already on it — so the round is built for counters, not bolted on to a hotel run.
• Volume changes are expected — a quiet January in Hainault and a busy July are the same account.

Both, and mixed accounts are normal. The two sit on one invoice and one round.

• Hire — the count is maintained for you, including the items that wear out first.
• Wash-only — your own branded aprons come back to you, the same items, not pooled.
• Plenty of cafes do both — hired glass cloths and tea towels, own-branded aprons on wash-only.

Tell your account manager and a missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week.

• If it happens twice, the par count is wrong — and resetting it is our job, not a favour.
• Most Hainault cafes are not short of linen overall — the weekly total is fine; the weekend distribution is not.
• Seasonal swings are planned in — we set them ahead rather than react.

No. Kitchen cloths and table linen go on the same IG6 collection and the same invoice.

• No second supplier and no second delivery day — because the menu grew.
• Chef whites, oven cloths and table linen — priced per item on the account you already have.
• 4 restaurants around IG6 are on this round too — the kitchen classification already runs on it weekly.

Yes — the IG6 round is sequenced by opening time. Cafes open earlier than almost anything else we serve.

• The time is agreed when the account opens — not left to whenever the van happens to reach Hainault.
• Timed around Fairlop so the van is not arriving into the worst of it.
• If a drop is missed, a missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week.

Because cafe soil is chemically different from kitchen soil. On a general cycle they build up and whites dull within weeks.

• Cafe cloths and aprons run on their own classification — the programme is chosen for them, not inherited.
• Milk protein needs the right temperature, not just a hotter one — overheating fixes the stain instead of lifting it.
• Grey whites are usually a wash problem, not an age problem — a Hainault cafe buying aprons three times a year is paying for a bad cycle, not for wear.
