Restaurant Linen In Petts Wood Collected On Round

16 restaurants in Petts Wood sit inside the area we already collect from, 19.6 miles from our Wembley plant. Alongside them, 10 cafés and 3 pubs and bars are on the same run.

• Shared with St Mary Cray, Orpington and Bickley — the round already passes, so you are joining a journey rather than paying for a new one.
• 7 days collections, on a fixed day and time that does not drift week to week.
• a 19.6-mile round trip is short enough that a missed collection is recovered on the next run, not the next week.

Kitchen soil is treated as kitchen soil. Grease, red wine, oil and candle wax each need a different combination of temperature, dwell time and chemistry, and no single programme gets all four out.

• 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 and re-treated before they go back out. Most recover; the ones that do not are replaced from stock rather than returned to you to notice.
• Wax is lifted before wash, because heat drives it into the weave and fixes it there for good.

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, and a change of size is a phone call rather than a reorder.

One contact for all of them. Running several Bromley sites through one account is the common case here, not a special arrangement.

• Each site keeps its own par level. Sites are sized individually, because an average across two very different rooms is wrong for both.
• 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 BR5 round is planned around service times, which is the difference between a supplier who works here and one who merely delivers here.

• Access around Petts Wood 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, which is the difference between laying up calmly and laying up at speed.
• If a run is disrupted — a road closure, a breakdown — a 19.6-mile plant means the fix is hours away rather than days.

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 Petts Wood — 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 once there is real data rather than a first guess — at no cost either way.
• Seasonal swing is expected — BR5 trade moves across the year, and the par level should move with it rather than being agreed once and forgotten.

Both, and most Petts Wood accounts run both. Hired table linen where volume is high, owned whites where the branding matters.

• Owned stock stays yours. We do not buy it off you at a discount to simplify the paperwork.
• Hire covers replacement — which is usually the larger number over a year, because linen wears out in public.
• Most Petts Wood accounts run both: hired table linen where volume is high, owned chef whites where the branding matters.

No minimum order. Petts Wood is already on the round, so a small account costs us a stop rather than a journey — which is exactly why some suppliers quote a minimum here and we do not.

• Cafés and bars sit alongside restaurants and are priced the same way: on usage, not on category.
• No tie-in and no volume threshold — a slow month does not move you onto a worse rate.
• 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.
