Table Linen In Purley Collected On Round

10 restaurants in Purley sit inside the area we already collect from, 17.1 miles from our Wembley plant. Alongside them, 10 cafés and 3 pubs and bars are on the same run.

• Shared with Kenley, Coulsdon and Little Woodcote — one vehicle covers them, which is why we can add a kitchen here without adding a journey, and why the price does not carry a delivery surcharge.
• 7 days collections, in a window agreed when the account opens rather than assigned by a routing system on the morning.
• a 17.1-mile round trip means a problem is a second trip that day rather than a note on next week's sheet.

It depends entirely on the mark. Oil, wine and wax behave differently in a wash, and treating them the same is how cloths come back looking tired after a season.

• 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 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, not melted through the fabric by a hot cycle, which is what sets it permanently.

Yes — and on the same visit. Splitting linen and workwear across two suppliers is how one of them ends up late.

• Whites come back on hangers, not folded into a bag for someone to iron again before service.
• 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.

Yes, and it usually costs less. Sites on the same Croydon rounds share the journey, which is the whole reason a group rate exists.

• Each site keeps its own par level. The busy site gets the depth it needs without the quiet one paying for stock it never uses.
• Consolidated billing on one invoice, itemised by site — one number for finance, the detail for whoever asks.
• 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 CR8 round is planned around service times, which is the difference between a supplier who works here and one who merely delivers here.

• Access around Reedham 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, so the team lays up with what arrived that morning rather than what was left in the cupboard.
• If a run is disrupted — a road closure, a breakdown — we come back the same day. At 17.1 miles that is a decision, not a logistics exercise.

Par is set to your busiest service, not your average one. A stock level built around a Tuesday fails on a Saturday, which is the night it matters.

• We count a real week in Purley — not an estimate, and not the number inherited from whoever quoted before us.
• Reviewed after a full month once there is real data rather than a first guess — at no cost either way.
• Seasonal swing is expected — CR8 trade moves across the year, and the par level should move with it rather than being agreed once and forgotten.

Both, and most Purley 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 — the cost of a cloth reaching the end of its life sits with us, not with you.
• Most Purley accounts run both: hired table linen where volume is high, owned chef whites where the branding matters.

No minimum order. Purley 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 on the same run, and a 24-cover room is priced on what it actually uses.
• No tie-in and no volume threshold to keep the price you were quoted — the rate does not change if you have a quiet January.
• 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.
