Commercial Linen In New Addington Collected On Round

2 restaurants in New Addington sit inside the area we already collect from, 18.9 miles from our Wembley plant. Alongside them, 2 cafés and 2 pubs and bars are on the same run.

• Shared with Selsdon, Keston and West Wickham — the round already passes, so you are joining a journey rather than paying for a new one.
• 7 days collections, in a window agreed when the account opens rather than assigned by a routing system on the morning.
• an 18.9-mile round trip is short enough that a missed collection is recovered on the next run, not the next week.

Four different problems, four different answers. Grease needs heat, wine needs speed, wax needs lifting cold — a supplier running everything on one cycle returns you the average of all three.

• Items are sorted before washing, not after. Mixing table linen with kitchen cloths is the single fastest way to grey a white.
• Marked items are pulled at the check stage rather than sent back for you to find. Re-treatment first, replacement only if it fails.
• Wax is lifted before wash, cold and mechanically — a hot cycle is what makes candle wax permanent.

Front of house and back of house, one collection. Whites and cloths travel with the tablecloths, on one docket and one bill.

• Whites come back on hangers, sized and named where you want them named, so they go straight to the changing area rather than onto a pile.
• Cloths are bagged by type — glass, oven, waiter — because sorting a mixed bag at 5pm is nobody's job.
• Sizes are held in stock, so hiring someone does not mean borrowing a jacket two sizes out.

One account manager, one invoice. Multi-site operators across Croydon 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 that shows the total and the split, so nobody has to reconcile it by hand.
• Adding a site later is a change to the drop list, not a new contract or a new supplier relationship.

Before the doors, not during them. The CR0 round is planned around service times, which is the difference between a supplier who works here and one who merely delivers here.

• Deliveries land before the doors open, which is the difference between laying up calmly and laying up at speed.
• If a run is disrupted — a road closure, a breakdown — the plant is 18.9 miles away, so the recovery is a second trip that day, not a note on next week's schedule.

We size the account on your peak. Averaging a quiet Tuesday with a full Saturday produces a number that is wrong on both nights.

• We count a real week in New Addington — because the figure that matters is what you actually get through, not what you ordered.
• Reviewed after a full month once there is real data rather than a first guess — at no cost either way.
• Seasonal swing is expected — CR0 trade moves across the year, and the par level should move with it rather than being agreed once and forgotten.

Either, and mixed accounts are normal. Hire from us, or we launder stock you already own — the CR0 round collects both the same way and on the same docket.

• 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 New Addington accounts run both: hired table linen where volume is high, owned chef whites where the branding matters.

Nothing is too small if you are on the round. New Addington already is, so the question is what you use, not how much.

• Cafés and bars sit alongside restaurants and are priced the same way: on usage, not on category.
• 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.
