Kitchen Linen In Hersham On The Kitchen Round

Yes — Hersham sits on the KT12 round, 7 days, 14.3 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Esher, Walton on Thames and Whiteley Village — the same vehicle covers them, so a brigade here can be added without moving anyone else.
• The driver knows the service entrances around Hersham — route knowledge is most of what separates a kept window from a missed one.
• A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, which is what 14.3 miles buys you.
• 21 kitchens around KT12 are already on this round — which is why the timings suit prep and service rather than check-out.

Both, and mixed accounts are normal. Plenty of Hersham kitchens run half and half.

• Hire — the rail is maintained for you, including the jackets that scorch first.
• Wash-only — garment for garment, never substituted.
• Plenty of kitchens do both — hired cloths and aprons, own-branded jackets on wash-only.
• You can move a line between the two later — it is a change to the sheet, not a new agreement.

Separately, and at its own temperature.

• Grease, protein and scorch need their own wash — one cycle cannot serve all three, which is why a general programme leaves all three behind.
• Whites never run through the cycle the table linen was on — and that separation is the whole reason ours stay white.
• Colour-coded cloths stay in their own classification — through the whole process.
• Every load is temperature logged — which matters on any site that has to show an inspector how its linen is handled.

There is no honest price list for kitchen work. Kitchen work is priced on the brigade and the covers, so a published list would be a guess.

• We count a real week in Hersham before quoting — including the summer weeks, which is where most estimates fall over.
• No minimum order — a two-section Hersham kitchen is priced per item, same as a brigade of thirty.
• The count includes your busy season — peak weeks are the ones the par count has to survive.
• 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.

• 6 school kitchens around KT12 are already on the round — we are not learning catering work on your account.
• 2 care home kitchens nearby — where consistency matters more than turnaround speed, and the account is set up for that.
• Colour-coded cloths and named whites — so the coding still means something when the cloths come back.
• Contract caterers running several sites — get one account manager and staggered collection days across the group.

We size the brigade before quoting, not after the first complaint.

• Every section is sized at setup — not estimated from a headcount.
• A new commis goes on the account the same week — brigades in Hersham change constantly, and the account is built for that.
• Garments are named — so nobody is sorting a mixed box at the start of a shift.
• Par counts are re-set after the first month — against what the brigade actually used, because any opening count is an estimate.

Outside both, because prep is the window most suppliers hit.

• The time is agreed when the account opens — against your service pattern, not ours.
• Timed around Hersham 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.
• 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 — the count and the quote commit you to nothing.
• Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — the two overlap by design.
• If it is not working, say so — we would rather correct the account than lose it.
