Towel Service In Ham On The Leisure Round

Yes — Ham sits on the TW10 round, 7 days, 8.8 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Petersham, Hampton and Strawberry Hill — the same vehicle covers them, so a club here can be added without moving anyone else.
• A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, because of that distance.
• 9 clubs and spas around TW10 are already on this round — so the vehicle is sized for towel volume rather than adapted to it.

Every Ham 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 — not a statement that only makes sense to us.
• A sudden jump in loss is worth knowing about — and we would rather flag it than absorb it quietly.
• On hire, fair wear is our cost — not a charge back to you.

Priced on your peak and your member numbers, not off a rate card. 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 Ham before quoting — the invoice records what you were sold, not what you used.
• The count includes January — peak months are the ones the par count has to survive.
• No minimum order — size barely moves the per-item price.
• The count and the quote cost nothing — including while you are still under contract elsewhere.

By counting against your peak rather than your daily average. Towel demand does not spread evenly across opening hours — it stacks, and an average hides exactly that.

• We count on site at the time it matters — the invoice records what you were sold, not what the rack needed.
• 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 — a second shortage is a counting error, not bad luck.

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.

Yes, and they are genuinely different jobs on the same account. The gym side is judged on whether the rack is full; the spa side on how the robe feels.

• Robes are laundered to keep their handle — which is a different process from turning round sweat towels at volume.
• 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 — with one account manager across both.

No long-term tie-in and no exit fee. The account should hold because it works, not because leaving is expensive.

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

Because sweat and body oil build up in the fibre and a general wash does not shift them. Cold it is fine; warm and damp it is not, and that is after it has reached a member.

• Gym towelling runs on its own classification — not as the tail end of a bed linen load.
• 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.
