Cafe Linen In Sidcup On The Morning Round

Yes — Sidcup sits on the DA15 round, 7 days, 18.9 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Blackfen, Foots Cray and Albany Park — the same vehicle covers them, which is why a counter here can be added without moving anyone else.
• The driver knows the streets around Sidcup — route knowledge is most of what separates a kept window from a missed one.
• A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, because of that distance.

No minimum, on any line. Most of what we collect in DA15 is exactly that size.

• Small sites go on the same DA15 round — so you are not paying for a dedicated trip into Sidcup.
• 16 cafes around DA15 are already on it — the vehicle is sized for this kind of work rather than adapted to it.
• Volume changes are expected — a quiet January in Sidcup and a busy July are the same account.

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 — the same garments that left Sidcup, tracked, never swapped into a pool.
• 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 — and resetting it is our job, not a favour.
• Most Sidcup 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 DA15 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.
• 28 restaurants around DA15 are on this round too — we are not learning kitchen work on your account.

Before you open, because that is how the DA15 round is ordered. Cafes open earlier than almost anything else we serve.

• The time is agreed when the account opens — and a relief driver inherits it with the route.
• Timed around Sidcup 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.

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 — rather than whatever the machine was doing before.
• 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 — if stock is replaced every few months, the cycle is wrong.

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 — there is no cost to finding out what it would look like.
• Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — so there is never a morning in Sidcup with nothing clean.
