Hotel Linen In Selsdon Collected On Round

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

• Shared with Sanderstead, New Addington and Farleigh — one van, one run, which is what keeps the cost of a small account sensible.
• A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, because of that distance.

A linen audit, an agreed par level, and a collection day.

• No tender and no tie-in — you stay because it works, or you leave in a month.
• Par levels set per room type, and revisited once we have seen a full month of real usage.
• The audit is free — most operators find out what they are losing, which is worth the hour on its own.
• Your notice period is our problem, not yours — the count happens whenever suits; the round starts when you are free.

A standing slot, 7 days — the same time each week, which is the point.

• Same driver each week — continuity matters more here than most suppliers admit.
• Planned around check-out, not against it — the van should not be waiting on your team.
• Changeable — tell the account manager and it changes that week.
• A missed slot is not a lost week — 18.0 miles is close enough that the fix is hours away.

Yes. Separate accounts for sites on the same round is a billing habit, not a requirement.

• One account manager across every Croydon site.
• One invoice, with per-site lines, so finance and operations can both use it.
• Par stock tracked per site — the usual multi-property problem is linen drifting between buildings and being paid for twice.
• Consolidated billing with a per-site breakdown — so nobody reconciles it by hand at the end of the month.

No minimum. The round is already passing, which is the whole reason we can say that.

• Same turnaround regardless of size — small accounts are not queued behind large ones.
• No small-volume premium, which is the part most suppliers will not put in writing.
• Seasonal properties welcome — collections pause and restart without closing the account.
• No exit fee either — if it is not working, you say so and we collect our stock. A contract you cannot leave is a contract we would rather not have.

Settled at the audit, written onto the CR2 round sheet, and not revisited on the day.

• Loading bay, service lift or back entrance — chosen with housekeeping rather than assumed from the front elevation.
• It is the usual failure point — and it is entirely avoidable with one site visit.
• The mileage is not billed back to you — the round already passes, so an extra stop costs us minutes rather than miles.
• Relief drivers get the same notes — the arrangement survives a change of driver, which is when most suppliers slip.

At our own plant in Wembley, 18.0 miles from Selsdon. Nothing is subcontracted to a third site.

• A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week.
• One process, one audit — traceability only works when there is one chain to trace.
• You can visit. We would rather show you than write about it.
• Nothing is passed to a third party — a supplier who cannot tell you which building your linen is in cannot promise you much about how it was washed.

Either, and you can change later without changing supplier.

• On hire we hold and replace the stock, which takes linen off your balance sheet entirely.
• Wash-only keeps your linen yours, processed to the same spec.
• Mixed is common — hire the towelling, wash-only the bedding.
• Wear and loss sit with us — you stop budgeting for replacement stock, because replacement is the point of hire.
