What goes wrong
The Horley shift starts badly before anyone touches a pan
Almost nobody around RH6 changes linen supplier to save money. They change because the same thing went wrong three weeks running.
-
Whites that are not actually white
Grease and protein need their own wash. Run through a front-of-house cycle they build up, and a Horley brigade ends up in jackets that look tired in a month.
-
Sizes that turn into a scramble
Nobody should be hunting for their size at the start of service. Sized and named means the rail is ready and nobody is rummaging.
-
Deliveries that land mid-prep
A drop timed for the middle of prep is a drop nobody in Horley can receive. The round has to be planned around service, not around the traffic.
How it works
Four steps, and the Horley head chef stops managing linen
Most of the work happens before the first collection. Get the sizing and the timing right and the service stops being something the pass has to think about.
-
The count
An hour in the Horley kitchen tells us the wear rate per section, which is the number the whole account is built on.
An hour, on site
-
The round
RH6 already has a collection day. We fit you to it and agree a time that sits outside prep and outside service.

The switch
You are never between suppliers, and no service is covered in borrowed jackets.
No gap in service
-
The account
The same person handles Horley every week, which is why a size change does not need explaining twice.
One name, not a queue
Running more than one kitchen 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
Horley kitchen linen is not subcontracted
There are two buildings between your linen and ours, and we own both. Horley collections run 27.1 miles to our Wembley plant. Nothing is passed to a third party in between.
What comes off a Horley pass is not what comes off a dining room table. Kitchen work is classified on its own, at its own temperature, rather than following the table linen through the machine.

Changing supplier is not the Friday risk Horley chefs think
Most Horley kitchens stay with a supplier they have stopped rating, because changing one feels like a risk on a Friday. It is not.
- Before you commit
We size the brigade properly
An hour on site: every section, every size, and the garments that wear out first. Sizing is where most kitchen accounts go wrong.
- The handover
Whites land before the old supplier stops
You are never between suppliers. The new rail is hung before the last collection of the old contract.
- After
New starters go on the account the same week
A new commis does not wait for the next order cycle. Sizing changes go through your account manager and land on the next round.
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.

Whether we are catering a wedding or a corporate launch, linen presentation has to be immaculate. We get crisp, vacuum-sealed table linens and pristine chef jackets every time — a genuine operational ally.
Julian Bennett Executive Director of Operations · Catering & event production -
Our membership expects discretion and immaculate standards. Dining room linens and guest suites are laundered to a bespoke standard, and the discretion around our account has been absolute.
Alistair Finch Club Secretary & General Manager · Private members' club -
LP Laundry has been an absolute game-changer for our 45-room boutique hotel. Turnaround on our bed linens and heavy plush towels is inside 24 hours without a single delay. We could not be happier with the crisp, immaculate finish.
Charlotte Vance Front of House & Accommodation Manager · 45-room boutique hotel -
Running a high-end spa means going through hundreds of bathrobes and spa towels daily. Our rotation stays fully stocked with exceptionally soft, hygienically pristine textiles. Guest comfort has noticeably improved since we switched.
Siobhan O'Connor Spa Operations Director · Luxury health club & spa -
Our members expect fresh sweat towels immediately after back-to-back spinning classes. They handle our daily volume seamlessly, and I would single out the punctuality and the clean, long-lasting scent of the eco-friendly detergents.
Marcus Thorne Studio Manager · Boutique fitness studio -
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 -
For high-end short-stay apartments, guest reviews live and die by linen quality. We get hotel-grade crispness that consistently earns us five-star cleanliness ratings, and the communication lines are short when something needs resolving.
Beatrice Dupont Head of Housekeeping · Luxury serviced apartments -
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.

About Horley
Why Horley is collected the way it is
A thriving commuter town on the Gatwick border with excellent logistics support. Unique to Horley.
Horley is collected 7 days on a shared round, so a two-section kitchen here costs a stop rather than a journey.

Asked most often about Horley kitchen linen
Is Horley on a kitchen round?
Yes — Horley sits on the RH6 round, 7 days, 27.1 miles from our Wembley plant.
- Shared with Salfords, Smallfield and Burstow — adding you changes the schedule, not the route.
- The driver knows the service entrances around Horley — the same crew runs it weekly, so nobody is looking for your back door.
- Collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens, which is what 27.1 miles buys you.
- 50 kitchens around RH6 are already on this round — which is why the timings suit prep and service rather than check-out.
Are contract caterers on the round?
Yes. Contract catering, schools and care homes are all on the rounds.
- 8 school kitchens around RH6 are already on the round — the classification and the paperwork already suit that kind of site.
- 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 — suit sites that need an audit trail.
- Contract caterers running several sites — keep one invoice and one point of contact however many kitchens are on it.
A new commis starts Monday — how fast can you kit them out?
In person, section by section — not off a headcount.
- Every section is sized at setup — not estimated from a headcount.
- A new commis goes on the account the same week — brigades in Horley change constantly, and the account is built for that.
- Garments are named — the rail is ready and nobody is hunting for their size.
- Par counts are re-set after the first month — and again after your first busy season, which is where opening figures usually fail.
Can you deliver outside prep and service?
Yes — the RH6 round is sequenced around service patterns.
- The time is agreed when the account opens — against your service pattern, not ours.
- Timed around Horley so the van is not arriving into the worst of it.
- If a drop is missed, collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens.
- A relief driver inherits the window with the route — the timing is a property of the account, not of one driver remembering it.
Is there a minimum term?
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 — we will size your brigade 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.
Can we keep our own embroidered jackets in Horley?
Both, and mixed accounts are normal. One collection covers whichever way each line is set up.
- Hire — we own the garments, replace them on wear and manage sizing as the brigade changes.
- Wash-only — your own embroidered jackets come back to you, the same garments, named, not pooled.
- Plenty of kitchens do both — hired cloths and aprons, own-branded jackets on wash-only.
- You can move a line between the two later — without reopening the account or renegotiating anything.
Why do our jackets go grey?
Separately, and at its own temperature.
- Grease, protein and scorch need their own wash — and their own temperature.
- Whites never run through the cycle the table linen was on — that transfer is what dulls a brigade's whites inside a month.
- Colour-coded cloths stay in their own classification — through the whole process.
- Every load is temperature logged — so there is a record behind the classification rather than an assurance.
What would a Horley brigade cost to kit out?
There is no honest price list for kitchen work. The number depends on sections and turnover, not on floor area.
- We count a real week in Horley before quoting — including the summer weeks, which is where most estimates fall over.
- No minimum order — a two-section Horley 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.
Something specific to your Horley kitchen?
Ask us directlyThe greenest wash is the one Horley does not repeat
Most of the environmental cost of kitchen linen is rewashing and replacing it. Classifying kitchen soil properly the first time does more than any claim on a van.
- Horley is a stop on a round that was already running, not a van dispatched for one kitchen.
- Whites washed on the right classification last longer before replacement.
- A scorched cuff is repaired and put back into rotation, not written off.
