What goes wrong

A cafe runs on cloths nobody in Old Woking wants to think about

Almost nobody around GU22 changes linen supplier to save money. They change because the same thing went wrong three weeks running.

  • Deliveries that land after opening

    A cafe opens earlier than almost anything else on the street. A drop timed for mid-morning is a drop that missed the shift it was for, and in Old Woking that means serving the first hours on yesterday's cloths.

  • Cloths that come back grey

    Coffee oil, milk protein and syrup are not the same soil as food service. Washed on a general cycle they build up, whites go dull within weeks, and the counter is where it shows.

  • Running short on the busy day

    Par counts set on a quiet Tuesday leave you short on Saturday. Most Old Woking cafes are not short of linen overall — they are short of it twice a week.

How it works

Four steps, and Old Woking stops managing linen

Most of the work happens before the first collection. Get the count and the timing right and the service stops being something you manage.

Serving GU22 Since 2009
  1. The count

    We look at a real week in Old Woking: how many aprons a shift gets through, what is still in the wash when you open, and which two days you run short.

    Half an hour, on site

  2. The round

    GU22 already has a collection day. We fit you to it and agree a time that lands before opening rather than during it.

    GU22 · 7 days

  3. The switch

    You are never between suppliers. The first delivery arrives before the last collection of the old agreement.

    No gap in service

  4. The account

    One name, who has seen your counter and knows the GU22 driver. Problems get solved on a call rather than logged.

    One name, not a queue

Running more than one site around Woking? The same account manager covers all of them, on staggered days so no site is left short.

How it is processed

Old Woking cloths are not subcontracted

There are two buildings between your linen and ours, and we own both. Old Woking collections run 20.9 miles to our Wembley plant. Nothing is passed to a third party in between.

Cafe work is classified separately here. Milk protein sets if it is washed too hot and builds up if it is washed too cool, so Old Woking cloths run on a cycle chosen for them rather than inherited from the previous load.

Changing supplier is not the risk Old Woking operators think

The reason Old Woking operators put up with a supplier they have stopped rating is timing: there is no good week to risk it. That is a scheduling problem, not a reason to stay.

  1. Before you commit

    We count a real week, not an average one

    Saturday out, Monday back, and the gap in between. That gap is where every shortage on the account comes from.

  2. The handover

    Stock lands before the old supplier stops

    Nothing is stood down until the replacement is physically on your shelf.

  3. After

    Par counts adjust once we have seen a month

    Month one is a measurement. From month two the Old Woking par count reflects your real weekend rather than our opening guess.

Nothing here needs you to be out of contract first — the count and the quote cost nothing.

  • 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.
    Mateo Rossi Restaurant General Manager · Fine dining restaurant
  • Running a busy dining room alongside eight letting rooms needs a versatile laundry partner. Kitchen aprons, table runners and bed sheets all go in one collection, and the seven-day pickup schedule flexes around us.
    Liam Gallagher Operations & Pub Manager · Gastro pub with rooms
  • Whether we are catering a wedding or a corporate launch, linen presentation has to be immaculate. We get crisp, vacuum-sealed table linens and pristine chef jackets every time — a genuine operational ally.
    Julian Bennett Executive Director of Operations · Catering & event production
  • Our membership expects discretion and immaculate standards. Dining room linens and guest suites are laundered to a bespoke standard, and the discretion around our account has been absolute.

The area

Why Old Woking is collected the way it is

The historic original heart of Woking, featuring ancient palace ruins and beautiful riverside walks. Unique to Old Woking.

Old Woking is collected 7 days on a shared round, so a single-site cafe here costs a stop rather than a journey.

Cafe laundry in Old Woking — what operators ask

Can you reach Old Woking 7 days?

Yes — Old Woking sits on the GU22 round, 7 days, 20.9 miles from our Wembley plant.

  • Shared with Woking, Maybury and Send — adding you changes the schedule, not the route.
  • A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, which is what 20.9 miles buys you.
What is the difference between hire and wash-only in GU22?

Both, and mixed accounts are normal. One collection covers whichever way each line is set up.

  • Hire — we own the stock, replace it as it wears and keep the par count topped up.
  • Wash-only — item for item, never substituted.
  • Plenty of cafes do both — branding matters on the apron, rarely on the tea towel behind the counter.
Can you cover a busy weekend in Old Woking?

Tell your account manager and a missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week.

  • If it happens twice, the par count is wrong — we reset it against what you actually used, not what was estimated at setup.
  • Most Old Woking 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 — rather than handled as emergencies.
We serve food as well as coffee — separate account?

No. Kitchen cloths and table linen go on the same GU22 collection and the same invoice.

  • No second supplier and no second delivery day — the round does not change when the kitchen opens.
  • Chef whites, oven cloths and table linen — all available on the same account, hire or wash-only.
  • 2 restaurants around GU22 are on this round too — so the food side is not an afterthought here.
Can you deliver before we open in Old Woking?

Before you open, because that is how the GU22 round is ordered. Cafes open earlier than almost anything else we serve.

  • The time is agreed when the account opens — it goes on the round sheet, not into a delivery window.
  • A mid-morning drop missed the shift it was for. We schedule against your opening time, not ours.
  • If a drop is missed, a missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week.
Our aprons look dull after a month — why?

Because cafe soil is chemically different from kitchen soil. A cycle built for table linen leaves them behind.

  • Cafe cloths and aprons run on their own classification — not as the tail end of a kitchen load.
  • Milk protein needs the right temperature, not just a hotter one — overheating fixes the stain instead of lifting it.
  • Grey whites are usually a wash problem, not an age problem — replacement rate is the clearest signal the classification is off.
Can we leave if it is not working?

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

  • Terms flex with seasonal demand — Old Woking in February and Old Woking 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 — the two overlap by design.
Do you take single-site cafes in GU22?

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

  • Small sites go on the same GU22 round — so you are not paying for a dedicated trip into Old Woking.
  • 3 cafes around GU22 are already on it — which is why the timings suit opening rather than check-out.
  • Volume changes are expected — the account flexes rather than holding you to a floor.
