Hotel Linen In Hungerford Collected To Schedule

Yes — Hungerford sits on the RG17 round, 53.7 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Kintbury, Inkpen and Wickham — the same vehicle covers them, which is why we can add a property here without moving anyone else's slot.
• The driver knows the roads around Hungerford — which sounds trivial until a supplier who does not misses a morning.
• Collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens, because of that distance.

A linen audit, an agreed par level, and a collection day.

• No tender and no tie-in — a contract only protects a supplier who expects the service to slip.
• Par levels set per room type, and revisited once we have seen a full month of real usage.
• The audit is free and carries no obligation.
• You do not have to be out of contract — the count happens whenever suits; the round starts when you are free.

A standing slot, 7 days — a time, not a window.

• Same driver each week — familiar faces make short conversations, and short conversations keep the round on time.
• Planned around check-out, which keeps dirty linen out of your corridors.
• Changeable — seasons shift, occupancy shifts, the slot can shift with them.
• If we miss it, we come back — 53.7 miles is close enough that the fix is hours away.

Yes. Separate accounts for sites on the same round is a billing habit, not a requirement.

• One account manager across every West Berkshire site.
• One invoice, with per-site lines, so finance and operations can both use it.
• Par stock tracked per site — so a quiet property does not quietly fund a busy one.
• One invoice, itemised by property — so nobody reconciles it by hand at the end of the month.

No minimum. The van is in RG17 regardless — you are not the reason for the journey.

• Same turnaround regardless of size — small accounts are not queued behind large ones.
• No small-volume premium, and no rounding up to a notional minimum.
• Seasonal properties welcome — collections pause and restart without closing the account.
• No exit fee either — no notice period dressed up as a minimum term.

Settled at the audit, written onto the RG17 round sheet, and not revisited on the day.

• Loading bay, service lift or back entrance — chosen with housekeeping rather than assumed from the front elevation.
• Timed around Hungerford because that is where the delay actually happens.
• This is where new suppliers come unstuck — not the laundry, not the van, the door.
• The mileage is not billed back to you — the round already passes, so an extra stop costs us minutes rather than miles.
• It is recorded against the account, not a person — access details live on the round sheet, so a stand-in is not knocking on the front door.

At our own plant in Wembley, 53.7 miles from Hungerford. No third party, no white-labelling, no surprises about where your linen spent the night.

• Collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens.
• One process, one audit — traceability only works when there is one chain to trace.
• You can visit. Clients who come tend to sign.
• Nothing is passed to a third party — a supplier who cannot tell you which building your linen is in cannot promise you much about how it was washed.

Whichever suits the property — and it can change as the property does.

• On hire we hold and replace the stock, so nothing is tied up in sheets.
• Wash-only keeps your linen yours, useful where the stock is branded or a particular weave.
• Mixed is common — most properties end up somewhere between the two.
• Hire covers replacement — you stop budgeting for replacement stock, because replacement is the point of hire.
