Cafe Linen In Rayleigh Collected To Schedule

Yes — Rayleigh sits on the SS6 round, 7 days, 38.3 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Hockley, Benfleet and Leigh on Sea — adding you changes the schedule, not the route.
• The driver knows the streets around Rayleigh — route knowledge is most of what separates a kept window from a missed one.
• Collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens, because Rayleigh is only 38.3 miles out.

No minimum, on any line. Most of what we collect in SS6 is exactly that size.

• Small sites go on the same SS6 round — so you are not paying for a dedicated trip into Rayleigh.
• 9 cafes around SS6 are already on it — the vehicle is sized for this kind of work rather than adapted to it.
• Volume changes are expected — we adjust rather than hold you to a winter figure.

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

• Hire — stock, replacement and par management are ours; you never reorder.
• Wash-only — item for item, never substituted.
• 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 — a second shortage is a counting error, and we correct it.
• Most Rayleigh cafes are not short of linen overall — the weekly total is fine; the weekend distribution is not.
• Seasonal swings are planned in — we set them ahead rather than react.

No. Kitchen cloths and table linen go on the same SS6 collection and the same invoice.

• No second supplier and no second delivery day — one account covers both sides of the counter.
• Chef whites, oven cloths and table linen — priced per item on the account you already have.
• 11 restaurants around SS6 are on this round too — so the food side is not an afterthought here.

Before you open, because that is how the SS6 round is ordered. Cafes open earlier than almost anything else we serve.

• The time is agreed when the account opens — not left to whenever the van happens to reach Rayleigh.
• Timed around Rayleigh so the van is not arriving into the worst of it.
• If a drop is missed, collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens.

It is the wash, not the cloth. 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.

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

• Terms flex with seasonal demand — you are not held to a peak figure through a quiet quarter.
• 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.
