Gym & Spa Towels In Padworth Collected To Schedule

Yes — Padworth sits on the RG7 round, 7 days, 37.7 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Ufton Nervet, Aldermaston and Beenham — the same vehicle covers them, so a club here can be added without moving anyone else.
• Collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens, because of that distance.
• Multi-site operators run on staggered days, so no club is left short while another is being collected from.

Shrinkage is normal and predictable. We plan for it rather than dispute it.

• Expected loss is built into the par count at setup — which is the difference between a working count and an optimistic one.
• You get the actual numbers each cycle — in and out, per collection, so the figure is checkable.
• A sudden jump in loss is worth knowing about — it usually means a change on the floor rather than a laundry problem.
• On hire, fair wear is our cost — you pay for the service, not for towels reaching the end of their life.

Priced on your peak and your member numbers, not off a rate card. Two clubs with the same membership can differ twofold in towel usage depending on the floor.

• We count a real week in Padworth before quoting — rather than pricing off your last invoice.
• The count includes January — peak months are the ones the par count has to survive.
• No minimum order — so a boutique studio is an ordinary account and is priced per item like any other.
• The count and the quote cost nothing — there is no cost to finding out what it would look like.

We count at peak, because that is the only hour the count has to survive. A Padworth floor gets through more between five and seven than across the rest of the day combined.

• We count on site at the time it matters — not from a figure on your last invoice.
• A Monday evening and a Sunday morning are different businesses — which is why the count is taken twice rather than once.
• January is planned in — a Padworth club in January is not the same club in August, and the account should say so.
• If you run short twice, the count is wrong — we reset it against real usage rather than the opening estimate.

Both, and mixed accounts are normal. The two sit on one invoice and one round.

• Hire — stock, replacement and shrinkage planning are ours; you never reorder.
• Wash-only — your own branded stock comes back to you, the same items, not pooled.
• Most clubs split it — hire what nobody looks at, keep your own name on what a member wears.
• You can move a line between the two later — clubs often start on hire and move the spa side across once branding is settled.

Yes, and they are genuinely different jobs on the same account. The gym side is judged on whether the rack is full; the spa side on how the robe feels.

• Robes are laundered to keep their handle — softness is the point on a robe, and it is achieved by the wash rather than by softener.
• Bath mats run on a heavier classification — and they are counted separately for the same reason.
• One collection, one invoice — no second supplier for the spa side.
• Hotel spas are a normal account — and the hotel laundry page covers how the rooms side is priced.

No long-term tie-in and no exit fee. We would rather keep you on the service than on the paperwork.

• Terms flex with seasonal demand — rather than holding you to a January volume through a quiet August.
• Nothing needs you to be out of your current contract first — we will count your peak while you are still under someone else.
• Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — you are never between suppliers.
• If it is not working, say so — most problems are a wrong par count or a wrong delivery window, and both are fixable without changing supplier.

Because sweat and body oil build up in the fibre and a general wash does not shift them. A towel can pass inspection dry and fail it in use, because oil only announces itself once the towel warms up.

• Gym towelling runs on its own classification — Padworth towels are classified for the soil they actually carry.
• Oil needs a different temperature from sweat — softener is the usual culprit: it smells pleasant and stops the towel drying anything.
• Towels that stop absorbing are usually over-softened, not worn out — that is a wash problem, not a replacement problem.
• Every load is temperature logged — which matters if you are ever asked to show how stock is handled.
