What goes wrong
Three things that cost Hooley clubs a supplier
Clubs in Hooley rarely leave a supplier over price. They leave after a run of evenings where the rack was empty at peak, or a batch came back smelling of damp.
-
Running out at the evening peak
Towel demand stacks into roughly two hours rather than spreading across opening. A par count set on a daily average leaves the Hooley rack empty exactly when the floor is busiest.
-
Towels that come back smelling
A towel can pass inspection dry and fail it in use. Oil left in the fibre only announces itself once the towel warms up, which is after it has reached a member.
-
Stock that never quite balances
Towels walk. Every Hooley club loses some, and an account that does not plan for shrinkage turns into a monthly argument about counts.
How it works
Four steps, and the Hooley rack stops being your problem
Most of the work happens before the first collection. Get the peak-hour count right and the towel rack stops being something the duty manager thinks about.
-
The count
An hour on the Hooley floor at the time it actually matters. The number that matters is the five-to-seven number, not the daily one.
An hour, at peak
-
The round
The van is already in CR5. Joining that round is what keeps a single studio priced as a stop rather than a journey.
CR5 · 7 days
-
The switch
Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down, so there is never an evening with an empty rack.
No gap in service
-
The account
One name, who has seen your floor at peak. Changes get made on a call rather than logged as a ticket.
One name, not a queue
Running more than one club around Reigate and Banstead? The same account manager covers all of them, on staggered days so no site is left short.
How it is processed
Nothing from Hooley leaves our own plants
There are two buildings between your towels and ours, and we own both. Hooley collections run 19.1 miles to our Wembley plant. Nothing is passed to a third party in between.
Softener is the usual culprit behind a towel that stops absorbing: it coats the fibre. Gym stock runs without it, which is why ours keeps drying rather than smearing.

A Hooley switch nobody on the floor notices
Most Hooley clubs stay with a supplier they have stopped rating, because changing one feels like a risk in the week membership is highest. It is not.
- Before you commit
We count your peak, not your average
We count the Hooley floor between five and seven rather than take a number off your last invoice — the invoice records what you were sold, not what the rack needed.
- The handover
Stock lands before the old supplier stops
You are never between suppliers. New stock is on the shelf before the last collection of the old contract.
- After
Par counts adjust once we have seen a month
Month one is a measurement. From month two the par count reflects your real peak and your real shrinkage rather than an opening guess.
Nothing here needs you to be out of contract first — the count and the quote cost nothing.
The week you switch is the week nobody notices.

In clinical and aesthetic practice, hygiene standards have to meet rigorous compliance. High-temperature sanitised gowns, drapes and bed covers arrive reliably every week. I trust their quality control completely.
Dr Elena Rostova Clinic Director · Private healthcare clinic -
Running a busy dining room alongside eight letting rooms needs a versatile laundry partner. Kitchen aprons, table runners and bed sheets all go in one collection, and the seven-day pickup schedule flexes around us.
Liam Gallagher Operations & Pub Manager · Gastro pub with rooms -
We use dozens of salon towels and client gowns every day. Stubborn hair dye and product stains come out effortlessly and our capes still look new. They are an indispensable part of the daily flow here.

From velvet seat throws to staff aprons and heavy bar towels, our eclectic mix of textiles is handled without fuss. The turnaround times and the account management are what stand out.

Back-to-back conferences and galas mean huge quantities of table skirts, stage linens and catering napkins at short notice. They have never missed a deadline on any of it.

Grooming generates heavy, fur-filled towels and specialist bedding that a standard machine cannot handle. Everything is collected and returned allergen-free, fluffy and sterilised. Top marks for taking on the difficult jobs.

Local knowledge
Hooley — what the round has to work around
A well-connected gateway village on the edge of the North Downs. Unique to Hooley.
Hooley is collected 7 days on a shared round, so a single studio here costs a stop rather than a journey.

Asked most often about Hooley towel accounts
Is Hooley on a towel round?
Yes — Hooley sits on the CR5 round, 7 days, 19.1 miles from our Wembley plant.
- Shared with Woodmansterne, Chipstead and Coulsdon — one van, one run, which is what keeps a single studio sensible to price.
- A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, because of that distance.
- 4 clubs and spas around CR5 are already on this round — which is why the timings suit an evening peak rather than a hotel check-out.
Is towel hire available to Hooley clubs?
Both, and mixed accounts are normal. One collection covers whichever way each line is set up.
- Hire — we own the stock, replace what wears out and carry the cost of a towel that greys in month two.
- Wash-only — your own branded stock comes back to you, the same items, not pooled.
- Most clubs split it — the logo matters on a robe, rarely on a sweat towel.
- You can move a line between the two later — clubs often start on hire and move the spa side across once branding is settled.
Is a Hooley spa a separate account?
Yes — a gym floor and a spa want opposite things from a towel. Volume on one side of the building, finish on the other.
- Robes are laundered to keep their handle — a robe that feels like a gym towel has been washed like one.
- Bath mats run on a heavier classification — than towelling, and mixing the two shortens the life of both.
- One collection, one invoice — no second supplier for the spa side.
- Hotel spas are a normal account — and the hotel laundry page covers how the rooms side is priced.
Do you lock CR5 clubs into a term?
No long-term tie-in and no exit fee. Nothing in the agreement is designed to make leaving awkward.
- 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 — we will count your peak while you are still under someone else.
- Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — so there is never a Hooley evening with an empty rack.
- If it is not working, say so — we would rather correct the account than lose it.
Is there a reason Hooley towels come back smelling?
Because the wash was wrong, not because the towel is finished. 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 — and softener makes it worse by coating the fibre, which is why we do not use it on gym stock.
- 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 — and the log sits against your account, not a general plant figure.
What happens about towels that go missing?
Every Hooley 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 — rather than a running balance nobody can reconcile.
- A sudden jump in loss is worth knowing about — a step change in shrinkage is information, not an invoice line.
- On hire, fair wear is our cost — greying and thinning are ours to replace.
How is gym towel laundry priced?
Priced on your peak and your member numbers, not off a rate card. The number follows turnover, not floor area.
- We count a real week in Hooley before quoting — the invoice records what you were sold, not what you used.
- The count includes January — a Hooley club quoted off an August week runs short in the month that matters.
- No minimum order — a small Hooley studio pays the same per towel as a club ten times the size.
- The count and the quote cost nothing — and commit you to nothing.
Our rack empties at six — can you fix that?
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 — an hour on the Hooley floor at peak tells us more than a year of delivery notes.
- A Monday evening and a Sunday morning are different businesses — which is why the count is taken twice rather than once.
- January is planned in — new-year membership is the most predictable spike in the trade and should never be handled as an emergency.
- If you run short twice, the count is wrong — a second shortage is a counting error, not bad luck.
Something specific to your Hooley club?
Ask us directlyThe cheapest wash for Hooley is the second one you avoid
Most of the environmental cost of gym towelling is rewashing and replacing it. Getting the classification right the first time does more than any claim on a van.
- One vehicle covers CR5, so adding Hooley adds a stop rather than a journey.
- Towelling washed without softener keeps absorbing, so it is replaced on wear rather than on feel.
- A greying towel moves to the back of the rotation rather than into a skip.
- More than 80% of the fleet running into Reigate and Banstead is fully electric.
