Cafe Linen In New Romney Collected To Schedule

Yes — New Romney sits on the TN28 round, 7 days, 66.3 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Lydd, Dymchurch and Hamstreet — adding you changes the schedule, not the route.
• Collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens, because New Romney is only 66.3 miles out.

Before you open, because that is how the TN28 round is ordered. Cafes open earlier than almost anything else we serve.

• The time is agreed when the account opens — and a relief driver inherits it with the route.
• A mid-morning drop missed the shift it was for. We schedule against your opening time, not ours.
• If a drop is missed, collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens.

Because cafe soil is chemically different from kitchen soil. On a general cycle they build up and whites dull within weeks.

• Cafe cloths and aprons run on their own classification — rather than whatever the machine was doing before.
• Milk protein needs the right temperature, not just a hotter one — past a point, heat bonds the protein to the cloth.
• Grey whites are usually a wash problem, not an age problem — a New Romney cafe buying aprons three times a year is paying for a bad cycle, not for wear.

No long-term tie-in and no exit fee.

• Terms flex with seasonal demand — New Romney in February and New Romney in July are different businesses, and the account should say so.
• Nothing needs you to be out of your current contract first — we will count your week while you are still under someone else.
• Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — you are never between suppliers.

No minimum, on any line. A single-site independent cafe in New Romney is an ordinary account for us.

• Small sites go on the same TN28 round — the journey is already happening; you are a stop on it.
• 7 cafes around TN28 are already on it — so the round is built for counters, not bolted on to a hotel run.
• Volume changes are expected — a quiet January in New Romney and a busy July are the same account.

Both, and mixed accounts are normal. Plenty of New Romney accounts run half and half.

• Hire — we own the stock, replace it as it wears and keep the par count topped up.
• Wash-only — the same garments that left New Romney, tracked, never swapped into a pool.
• Plenty of cafes do both — hired glass cloths and tea towels, own-branded aprons on wash-only.

Tell your account manager and collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens.

• If it happens twice, the par count is wrong — and resetting it is our job, not a favour.
• Most New Romney cafes are not short of linen overall — they are short of it on two predictable days, which is a counting problem rather than a volume one.
• Seasonal swings are planned in — New Romney in December is not New Romney in February, and the par count should know that.

No. Kitchen cloths and table linen go on the same TN28 collection and the same invoice.

• No second supplier and no second delivery day — because the menu grew.
• Chef whites, oven cloths and table linen — added as lines, not as a new agreement.
• 7 restaurants around TN28 are on this round too — the kitchen classification already runs on it weekly.
