What goes wrong in Mortimer
Mortimer covers do not wait for a laundry van
The difference between a supplier who works in Mortimer and one who merely delivers to it shows up on the third Saturday, not the first.
-
The van that arrives mid-service
Traffic around Mortimer turns a morning drop into an afternoon one, and the team lays up with whatever is left in the cupboard.
-
Cloths that go out marked
A creased cloth is a two-second judgement made before anyone has read the menu.
-
Running out on a Friday
A stock level built around a Tuesday does not survive a full Saturday in Mortimer.
How it works
Mortimer kitchens, from count to round, in four moves
Four steps, then you stop noticing it.
-
Covers, not guesswork
We measure usage rather than ask for it. What a turn costs in cloths is rarely the number on the last supplier's sheet.
An hour, on site
-
Weekend-weighted stock
We size to the peak and let the quiet days look over-supplied — the opposite arrangement fails when the room is full.
Adjusted, not renegotiated
-
A fixed slot
Collections settle into a window that sits outside service — not a two-hour promise that lands mid-lunch.
Agreed, then kept
-
Ready to lay up
Table linen comes back pressed and counted, chef whites on hangers, kitchen cloths bagged by type. Nothing needs sorting on arrival.
Counted both ways
Running more than one site in West Berkshire? The same account manager covers all of them, on one invoice and one collection round.
Behind the round
One plant, 35.1 miles from your pass
Your cloths go to one place — a plant in Wembley, 35.1 miles from Mortimer, owned and staffed by us rather than rented capacity somewhere else.
It also means kitchen soil is treated as kitchen soil — grease, wine and wax on the right programme, not whatever the machine was already running.

Switching in Mortimer without missing a service
Most Mortimer operators stay with a supplier they have stopped rating, because changing one feels like risking a service. It is the objection we hear most, so here is exactly how it runs.
- First, the count
We count a real week, not an average one
An hour in Mortimer: what goes out on a Saturday, what is still in the wash, what is past saving. You keep every item you own — nothing is bought back or written off to make a contract look neater.
- The overlap
You carry too much linen for a week, on purpose
Your current supplier finishes their cycle while the RG7 round starts delivering. For that week you are holding more than you need, which is the point — there is no service you lay up short for.
- Week three
Your day, your window, your account manager
Collections settle into a standing slot, processed at our own plant rather than passed on. Beech Hill and Burghfield are already collected on the same run, so this is an existing journey rather than a new one.
No exit fee, no buy-back, no minimum term to escape from. If your notice runs to March, we start in March.
Through the changeover, Mortimer keeps laying up as normal.

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.
Chloe St. Laurent Salon Owner & Manager · Hair & beauty salon -
We rely on clean bolster covers, fleece blankets and eye pillows. Delicate fabrics are treated with care while still getting a deep, hypoallergenic sanitisation, and everything comes back beautifully presented.
Hannah Sterling Studio Coordinator · Yoga & pilates studio -
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.
Kieran Davies Venue & Hospitality Manager · Boutique cinema & lounge -
As a family-run Victorian B&B we need a partner who understands traditional hospitality. Our heritage cotton sheets are treated with real care, the drivers are friendly and the weekly delivery is consistent.
Arthur Pendelton Proprietor & Manager · Traditional bed & breakfast -
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.
Danielle Moreau Events Logistics Manager · Corporate event venue -
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.
Natasha Petrov Head Groomer & Manager · Pet grooming & daycare -
Table presentation is everything in Mayfair. They handle our heavy cotton damask tablecloths and chef whites with real precision — stains vanish and the starch finish is always spot on. The daily collection has never let us down.

About Mortimer
Mortimer, specifically
A popular residential village with a strong community green and excellent links to Reading and Basingstoke. Unique to Mortimer.
Mortimer is collected 7 days on a shared round, so a 24-cover room is priced on what it uses rather than on the journey.

Mortimer — what kitchens ask before switching
Is Mortimer on one of your rounds?
1 restaurants in Mortimer sit inside the area we already collect from, 35.1 miles from our Wembley plant. Alongside them, 1 cafés and 1 pubs and bars are on the same run.
- Shared with Beech Hill, Burghfield and Grazeley — one vehicle covers them, which is why we can add a kitchen here without adding a journey, and why the price does not carry a delivery surcharge.
- 7 days collections, on a fixed day and time that does not drift week to week.
- a 35.1-mile round trip keeps the recovery window short — the plant is close enough to come back.
What happens to stained napkins from a Mortimer service?
It depends entirely on the mark. Oil, wine and wax behave differently in a wash, and treating them the same is how cloths come back looking tired after a season.
- Items are sorted before washing, not after. A tablecloth and an oven cloth never share a load — that is how cloths come back grey.
- Marked items are pulled at the check stage so the decision about whether a cloth is still good enough is ours, not yours at 6pm.
- Wax is lifted before wash, because heat drives it into the weave and fixes it there for good.
Is kitchenwear on the same RG7 round?
Yes — and on the same visit. Splitting linen and workwear across two suppliers is how one of them ends up late.
- Whites come back on hangers, ready to hang up — which is the only state a chef jacket is useful in.
- Cloths are bagged by type — glass, oven, waiter — so nothing needs sorting at the pass during setup.
- Sizes are held in stock, and a change of size is a phone call rather than a reorder.
We run more than one site around West Berkshire — one account?
One account manager, one invoice. Multi-site operators across West Berkshire are the norm rather than the exception, and the round does not change — only the drop list does.
- Each site keeps its own par level. A 30-cover bistro and a 200-cover brasserie should not carry the same stock, and averaging them is how one site runs short every weekend.
- Consolidated billing on one invoice, itemised by site — one number for finance, the detail for whoever asks.
- Adding a site later is a change to the drop list, not a new contract or a new supplier relationship.
What time does the van come in Mortimer?
Before the doors, not during them. The RG7 round is planned around service times, which is the difference between a supplier who works here and one who merely delivers here.
- Access around Mortimer is planned into the route rather than discovered on the day. Loading restrictions and one-way systems are the reason most suppliers drift late here.
- Deliveries land before the doors open, so setup starts with a full cupboard instead of a count of what survived last night.
- If a run is disrupted — a road closure, a breakdown — the plant is 35.1 miles away, so the recovery is a second trip that day, not a note on next week's schedule.
Mortimer is quiet midweek and full at weekends — does that work?
Par is set to your busiest service, not your average one. A stock level built around a Tuesday fails on a Saturday, which is the night it matters.
- We count a real week in Mortimer — covers midweek, covers at the weekend, and how many cloths a turn actually costs you rather than what the last supplier's sheet said.
- Reviewed after a full month and changed if the first number was wrong. It often is, in both directions.
- Seasonal swing is expected — RG7 trade moves across the year, and the par level should move with it rather than being agreed once and forgotten.
In Mortimer, do we have to hire or can you wash our own?
Whichever suits the item. We hire and we wash-only, and the RG7 round does not care which is in the bag.
- Owned stock stays yours. What you bought, you keep — including the items we would not have chosen.
- Hire covers replacement — the cost of a cloth reaching the end of its life sits with us, not with you.
- Most Mortimer accounts run both: hired table linen where volume is high, owned chef whites where the branding matters.
We are a 24-cover place — are we too small?
Nothing is too small if you are on the round. Mortimer already is, so the question is what you use, not how much.
- Cafés and bars sit alongside restaurants on the same run, and a 24-cover room is priced on what it actually uses.
- No tie-in and no volume threshold attached to the quote. The price you agree is the price at any volume.
- Growing later is a par-level change, not a renegotiation — adding a second flat does not reopen the contract.
- No exit fee. If it is not working, you say so and we collect our stock.
Something specific to your kitchen?
Ask us directlyThe cheapest wash for Mortimer is the second one you avoid
Most of the environmental cost of restaurant linen is rewashing and early replacement, not the wash itself — a cloth retired at the first oil mark has cost more than one washed twice. In Mortimer there is a second saving: the kitchens here sit close enough together that one round covers them, instead of separate journeys out from Wembley.
- One RG7 round serves Mortimer, Beech Hill and Burghfield — 3 areas, one set of miles.
- A 35.1-mile plant distance is the transport cost of every collection here — it is why routing matters more than detergent.
- Rinse water recovered and reused rather than discharged after a single cycle.
- A re-treated tablecloth costs a fraction of a replacement one, environmentally and otherwise.
