Commercial Linen In Hambleden On The Morning Round

Yes — Hambleden sits on the RG9 round, 7 days, 24.9 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Aston, Medmenham and Fawley — adding you changes the schedule, not the route.
• A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, because Hambleden is only 24.9 miles out.

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

• Terms flex with seasonal demand — rather than locking you into a winter volume you do not use in August.
• 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 — so there is never a morning in Hambleden with nothing clean.

No minimum, on any line. Most of what we collect in RG9 is exactly that size.

• Small sites go on the same RG9 round — the journey is already happening; you are a stop on it.
• A dozen aprons and a bundle of tea towels is a real account — and it is priced per item, the same as a site ten times the size.
• Volume changes are expected — the account flexes rather than holding you to a floor.

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

• Hire — stock, replacement and par management are ours; you never reorder.
• Wash-only — item for item, never substituted.
• 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 Hambleden cafes are not short of linen overall — the shortage has a shape, and the shape is Saturday.
• Seasonal swings are planned in — Hambleden in December is not Hambleden in February, and the par count should know that.

No. Kitchen cloths and table linen go on the same RG9 collection and the same invoice.

• No second supplier and no second delivery day — one account covers both sides of the counter.
• Chef whites, oven cloths and table linen — all available on the same account, hire or wash-only.
• If the kitchen is the bigger half — the restaurant page explains pricing by covers rather than by counter.

That is the point of putting Hambleden on the RG9 round rather than a separate trip. Cafes open earlier than almost anything else we serve.

• The time is agreed when the account opens — and a relief driver inherits it with the route.
• A mid-morning drop missed the shift it was for. We schedule against your opening time, not ours.
• If a drop is missed, a missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week.

It is the wash, not the cloth. Run on the wrong programme they accumulate rather than lift.

• Cafe cloths and aprons run on their own classification — not as the tail end of a kitchen load.
• Milk protein needs the right temperature, not just a hotter one — past a point, heat bonds the protein to the cloth.
• Grey whites are usually a wash problem, not an age problem — if stock is replaced every few months, the cycle is wrong.
