Commercial Linen In Selsdon On The Morning Round

Yes — Selsdon sits on the CR2 round, 7 days, 18.0 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Sanderstead, New Addington and Farleigh — adding you changes the schedule, not the route.
• A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, because of that distance.

No. Kitchen cloths and table linen go on the same CR2 collection and the same invoice.

• No second supplier and no second delivery day — because the menu grew.
• Chef whites, oven cloths and table linen — priced per item on the account you already have.
• 11 restaurants around CR2 are on this round too — we are not learning kitchen work on your account.

Yes — the CR2 round is sequenced by opening time. Cafes open earlier than almost anything else we serve.

• The time is agreed when the account opens — it goes on the round sheet, not into a delivery window.
• A mid-morning drop missed the shift it was for. We schedule against your opening time, not ours.
• If a drop is missed, a missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week.

Coffee oil, milk protein and syrup are not the same soil as food-service linen. A cycle built for table linen leaves them behind.

• Cafe cloths and aprons run on their own classification — the programme is chosen for them, not inherited.
• Milk protein needs the right temperature, not just a hotter one — too hot sets it into the fibre.
• 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 — Selsdon in February and Selsdon in July are different businesses, and the account should say so.
• 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 — so there is never a morning in Selsdon with nothing clean.

No minimum, on any line. Most of what we collect in CR2 is exactly that size.

• Small sites go on the same CR2 round — which is why size barely moves the per-item price.
• 3 cafes around CR2 are already on it — the vehicle is sized for this kind of work rather than adapted to it.
• Volume changes are expected — the account flexes rather than holding you to a floor.

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 a missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week.

• If it happens twice, the par count is wrong — we reset it against what you actually used, not what was estimated at setup.
• Most Selsdon cafes are not short of linen overall — the shortage has a shape, and the shape is Saturday.
• Seasonal swings are planned in — rather than handled as emergencies.
