Hotel Linen In Slough Collected On Round

Yes — Slough sits on the SL1 round, 13.6 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Eton, Windsor and Datchet — the same vehicle covers them, which is why we can add a property here without moving anyone else's slot.
• The driver knows the roads around Slough — the same crew runs it each week, so nobody is reading a map on your loading bay.
• 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 and you keep the numbers whether or not you use us.
• Nothing needs to end first — if you are tied in, we plan the start date around it. The audit and the plan cost you nothing either way.

A standing slot, 7 days — fixed, not 'sometime that morning'.

• Same driver each week — so housekeeping hands over to someone who knows the property.
• Planned around check-out, which keeps dirty linen out of your corridors.
• Changeable — if the time stops suiting you we move it.
• A missed slot is not a lost week — A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week.

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

• One account manager across every Slough site.
• One invoice, with per-site lines, so finance and operations can both use it.
• Par stock tracked per site — without it, stock migrates to whichever site shouts loudest.
• Finance sees one number, each site sees its own — 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 — a six-room guest house gets what a 200-room hotel gets.
• No small-volume premium, which is the part most suppliers will not put in writing.
• Seasonal properties welcome — we would rather hold the slot than lose the relationship.
• You can stop — 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.

Agreed before the first collection, not on the morning.

• Loading bay, service lift or back entrance — whichever actually works for your building, agreed once and then fixed.
• Timed around Slough and the traffic that comes with it.
• This is where new suppliers come unstuck — and it is entirely avoidable with one site visit.
• No delivery surcharge for the distance — the round already passes, so an extra stop costs us minutes rather than miles.
• It is recorded against the account, not a person — the arrangement survives a change of driver, which is when most suppliers slip.

At our own plant in Wembley, 13.6 miles from Slough. One building, ours, every load.

• A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week.
• One process, one audit — a certificate covering a site you do not control is a certificate covering nothing.
• You can visit. It is an hour out of your day and it answers most of the questions on this page.
• The chain is short on purpose — a supplier who cannot tell you which building your linen is in cannot promise you much about how it was washed.

Both are available, and moving between them does not mean a new account.

• On hire we hold and replace the stock, which takes linen off your balance sheet entirely.
• Wash-only keeps your linen yours, useful where the stock is branded or a particular weave.
• Mixed is common — there is no rule that says it has to be one or the other.
• Stock ageing is our cost, not yours — you stop budgeting for replacement stock, because replacement is the point of hire.
