Hospitality Linen In Kelvedon Collected To Schedule

Yes — Kelvedon sits on the CO5 round, 46.3 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Tiptree, Coggeshall and Great Totham — 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 Kelvedon — 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.

Agreed before the first collection, not on the morning.

• Loading bay, service lift or back entrance — whichever actually works for your building, agreed once and then fixed.
• Timed around Kelvedon 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 — you should not have to re-explain the building every August.

At our own plant in Wembley, 46.3 miles from Kelvedon. Nothing is subcontracted to a third site.

• Collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens.
• One process, one audit — a certificate covering a site you do not control is a certificate covering nothing.
• You can visit. We would rather show you than write about it.
• The chain is short on purpose — subcontracting is where consistency goes, because the second plant washes to its own schedule rather than to yours.

Either, and you can change later without changing supplier.

• 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.
• Wear and loss sit with us — the par level does not quietly drop over a season while nobody is counting.

A linen audit, an agreed par level, and a collection day. The nearest hotels we already collect from are the 1 in Coggeshall, 2.7 miles away, on the same run.

• No tender and no tie-in — you stay because it works, or you leave in a month.
• Par levels set per room type, worked out from your occupancy rather than a rule of thumb.
• The audit is free and carries no obligation.
• Your notice period is our problem, not yours — we work to your notice, not against it.

A standing slot, 7 days — the same time each week, which is the point.

• Same driver each week — so housekeeping hands over to someone who knows the property.
• Planned around check-out, so linen leaves as rooms are stripped.
• Changeable — seasons shift, occupancy shifts, the slot can shift with them.
• If we miss it, we come back — Collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens.

Yes, and it is usually cheaper and simpler than separate accounts.

• One account manager across every Braintree site.
• One invoice, broken down per property so you can still see where it goes.
• Par stock tracked per site — without it, stock migrates to whichever site shouts loudest.
• Consolidated billing with a per-site breakdown — which is what stops one busy property quietly subsidising a quiet one.

No minimum. The round is already passing, which is the whole reason we can say that.

• Same turnaround regardless of size — a six-room guest house gets what a 200-room hotel gets.
• No small-volume premium, which is the part most suppliers will not put in writing.
• Seasonal properties welcome — we would rather hold the slot than lose the relationship.
• You can stop — if it is not working, you say so and we collect our stock. A contract you cannot leave is a contract we would rather not have.
