Cafe Linen In Herne Bay Collected To Schedule

Yes — Herne Bay sits on the CT6 round, 7 days, 62.1 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Whitstable, Sturry and Fordwich — one van, one run, which is what keeps a single-site account sensible to price.
• The driver knows the streets around Herne Bay — route knowledge is most of what separates a kept window from a missed one.
• Collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens, which is what 62.1 miles buys you.

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 — there is no cost to finding out what it would look like.
• 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 CT6 is exactly that size.

• Small sites go on the same CT6 round — which is why size barely moves the per-item price.
• 26 cafes around CT6 are already on it — so the round is built for counters, not bolted on to a hotel run.
• Volume changes are expected — we adjust rather than hold you to a winter figure.

Both, and mixed accounts are normal. One collection covers whichever way each line is set up.

• Hire — the count is maintained for you, including the items that wear out first.
• Wash-only — the same garments that left Herne Bay, tracked, never swapped into a pool.
• Plenty of cafes do both — hired glass cloths and tea towels, own-branded aprons on wash-only.

Tell your account manager and collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens.

• If it happens twice, the par count is wrong — we reset it against what you actually used, not what was estimated at setup.
• Most Herne Bay cafes are not short of linen overall — the weekly total is fine; the weekend distribution is not.
• Seasonal swings are planned in — Herne Bay in December is not Herne Bay in February, and the par count should know that.

No. Kitchen cloths and table linen go on the same CT6 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 — priced per item on the account you already have.
• 18 restaurants around CT6 are on this round too — so the food side is not an afterthought here.

Yes — the CT6 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 Herne Bay.
• Timed around Herne Bay because that is where the delay actually happens.
• If a drop is missed, collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens.

Coffee oil, milk protein and syrup are not the same soil as food-service linen. On a general cycle they build up and whites dull within weeks.

• Cafe cloths and aprons run on their own classification — rather than whatever the machine was doing before.
• Milk protein needs the right temperature, not just a hotter one — too hot sets it into the fibre.
• Grey whites are usually a wash problem, not an age problem — a Herne Bay cafe buying aprons three times a year is paying for a bad cycle, not for wear.
