Kitchen Linen In Rushey Green On The Kitchen Round

Yes — Rushey Green sits on the SE6 round, 7 days, 13.9 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Lewisham, Catford and Ladywell — the same vehicle covers them, so a brigade here can be added without moving anyone else.
• The driver knows the service entrances around Catford, Ladywell and Catford Bridge — the same crew runs it weekly, so nobody is looking for your back door.
• A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, because Rushey Green is only 13.9 miles out.
• 108 kitchens around SE6 are already on this round — we are not learning the area on your account.

Both, and mixed accounts are normal. Plenty of Rushey Green kitchens run half and half.

• Hire — we own the garments, replace them on wear and manage sizing as the brigade changes.
• Wash-only — garment for garment, never substituted.
• Plenty of kitchens do both — hire what nobody reads, keep your own name on the whites.
• You can move a line between the two later — kitchens often start on hire and move their jackets across once the branding is settled.

Always. Kitchen work never follows table linen through the machine.

• Grease, protein and scorch need their own wash — one cycle cannot serve all three, which is why a general programme leaves all three behind.
• Whites never run through the cycle the table linen was on — and that separation is the whole reason ours stay white.
• Colour-coded cloths stay in their own classification — through the whole process.
• Every load is temperature logged — so there is a record behind the classification rather than an assurance.

Priced on your brigade, not off a rate card. Kitchen work is priced on the brigade and the covers, so a published list would be a guess.

• We count a real week in Rushey Green before quoting — the invoice tells us what you were sold, not what you used.
• No minimum order — a two-section Rushey Green kitchen is priced per item, same as a brigade of thirty.
• The count includes your busy season — a Rushey Green kitchen quoted off a quiet month runs short in the one that matters.
• The count and the quote cost nothing — and commit you to nothing.

Yes, and they are not an afterthought on a restaurant round.

• 18 school kitchens around SE6 are already on the round — so term-time volume changes are planned rather than improvised.
• 6 care home kitchens nearby — where consistency matters more than turnaround speed, and the account is set up for that.
• Colour-coded cloths and named whites — which is what an inspection actually looks for.
• Contract caterers running several sites — are handled as one account across Lewisham, not as separate customers.

In person, section by section — not off a headcount.

• Every section is sized at setup — including the sections that get through two a shift.
• A new commis goes on the account the same week — rather than waiting for an order cycle.
• Garments are named — which takes the sorting job off the pass entirely.
• Par counts are re-set after the first month — against what the brigade actually used, because any opening count is an estimate.

Yes — the SE6 round is sequenced around service patterns.

• The time is agreed when the account opens — it goes on the round sheet, not into a delivery window.
• Timed around Catford because that is where the delay actually happens.
• If a drop is missed, a missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week.
• A relief driver inherits the window with the route — the timing is a property of the account, not of one driver remembering it.

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

• Terms flex with seasonal demand — rather than locking you into a summer volume you do not use in February.
• Nothing needs you to be out of your current contract first — the count and the quote commit you to nothing.
• Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — you are never between suppliers.
• If it is not working, say so — the fix is usually a number on the sheet rather than a new contract.
