The RG4 problem
Linen in Sonning should be the thing you never think about
RG4 has its own constraints — access, timing, and the roads around Wokingham. A supplier who does not know the area finds that out during your service, not theirs.
-
The van that arrives mid-service
A late run near Wokingham means napkins arrive while the first covers are already seated.
-
Cloths that go out marked
A creased cloth is a two-second judgement made before anyone has read the menu.
-
The skip that fills by Thursday
Covers here swing hard between midweek and weekend, and a flat par level fails at the worst possible moment.
How it works
Set up once in Sonning, then stop thinking about it
Most of the work happens before the first collection, and most of it is ours.
-
The count
We measure usage rather than ask for it. What a turn costs in cloths is rarely the number on the last supplier's sheet.
Booked within days in RG4
-
Weekend-weighted stock
We size to the peak and let the quiet days look over-supplied — the opposite arrangement fails when the room is full.
No tie-in to change it
-
Same day, same driver
You get a fixed place on the RG4 round at 7 days, timed around service rather than around the vehicle.
Outside service hours
-
Ready to lay up
Pressed, counted, hung and bagged — the delivery is finished when it lands rather than when someone has sorted it.
One invoice, one contact
Running more than one site in Wokingham? The same account manager covers all of them, on one invoice and one collection round.
Behind the round
Sonning linen is not subcontracted
Nothing leaves the chain. Sonning linen travels 27.6 miles to Wembley and back, through a plant we run ourselves.
It is also why a chef jacket and a tablecloth get different treatment here — a subcontractor washes to their schedule, not your soil.

Switching in Sonning without missing a service
Most Sonning operators stay with a supplier they have stopped rating, because changing one feels like risking a service. It is the objection we hear most, so here is exactly how it runs.
- First, the count
Your stock gets counted, not estimated
An hour in Sonning: what goes out on a Saturday, what is still in the wash, what is past saving. You keep every item you own — nothing is bought back or written off to make a contract look neater.
- The overlap
The old round and the new one overlap
Your current supplier finishes their cycle while the RG4 round starts delivering. For that week you are holding more than you need, which is the point — there is no service you lay up short for.
- Settled
Your day, your window, your account manager
Collections settle into a standing slot, processed at our own plant rather than passed on. Charvil and Woodley are already collected on the same run, so this is an existing journey rather than a new one.
We do not ask you to break a contract early. If you are tied in, we plan the start date around your notice period.
No Sonning guest should ever meet your laundry supplier.

From velvet seat throws to staff aprons and heavy bar towels, our eclectic mix of textiles is handled without fuss. The turnaround times and the account management are what stand out.
Kieran Davies Venue & Hospitality Manager · Boutique cinema & lounge -
As a family-run Victorian B&B we need a partner who understands traditional hospitality. Our heritage cotton sheets are treated with real care, the drivers are friendly and the weekly delivery is consistent.
Arthur Pendelton Proprietor & Manager · Traditional bed & breakfast -
Back-to-back conferences and galas mean huge quantities of table skirts, stage linens and catering napkins at short notice. They have never missed a deadline on any of it.
Danielle Moreau Events Logistics Manager · Corporate event venue -
Grooming generates heavy, fur-filled towels and specialist bedding that a standard machine cannot handle. Everything is collected and returned allergen-free, fluffy and sterilised. Top marks for taking on the difficult jobs.
Natasha Petrov Head Groomer & Manager · Pet grooming & daycare -
Table presentation is everything in Mayfair. They handle our heavy cotton damask tablecloths and chef whites with real precision — stains vanish and the starch finish is always spot on. The daily collection has never let us down.
Mateo Rossi Restaurant General Manager · Fine dining restaurant -
Whether we are catering a wedding or a corporate launch, linen presentation has to be immaculate. We get crisp, vacuum-sealed table linens and pristine chef jackets every time — a genuine operational ally.
Julian Bennett Executive Director of Operations · Catering & event production -
Our membership expects discretion and immaculate standards. Dining room linens and guest suites are laundered to a bespoke standard, and the discretion around our account has been absolute.
Alistair Finch Club Secretary & General Manager · Private members' club -
Running a busy dining room alongside eight letting rooms needs a versatile laundry partner. Kitchen aprons, table runners and bed sheets all go in one collection, and the seven-day pickup schedule flexes around us.

Local knowledge
Sonning, specifically
An elite riverside village famous for its historic bridge, world-class theatre, and celebrity residents. Unique to Sonning.
Sonning is collected 7 days on a shared round, so a 24-cover room is priced on what it uses rather than on the journey.

Sonning operators usually ask these first
Do you already collect from Sonning?
1 restaurants in Sonning sit inside the area we already collect from, 27.6 miles from our Wembley plant. and 3 pubs and bars are on the same run.
- Shared with Charvil, Woodley and Twyford — they sit on the same run, so an extra stop costs us minutes rather than miles — and that is what keeps a small account viable here.
- 7 days collections, on a fixed day and time that does not drift week to week.
- a 27.6-mile round trip keeps the recovery window short — the plant is close enough to come back.
Will marked Sonning cloths come back marked?
Four different problems, four different answers. Grease needs heat, wine needs speed, wax needs lifting cold — a supplier running everything on one cycle returns you the average of all three.
- Items are sorted before washing, not after. Sorting after the wash is too late; the grease has already moved.
- Marked items are pulled at the check stage so the decision about whether a cloth is still good enough is ours, not yours at 6pm.
- Wax is lifted before wash, because heat drives it into the weave and fixes it there for good.
Is kitchenwear on the same RG4 round?
Same round, same invoice. Chef jackets, aprons, trousers, oven cloths and kitchen cloths are collected with the table linen — there is no second supplier and no second delivery day to remember.
- Whites come back on hangers, sized and named where you want them named, so they go straight to the changing area rather than onto a pile.
- Cloths are bagged by type — glass, oven, waiter — so nothing needs sorting at the pass during setup.
- Sizes are held in stock, so hiring someone does not mean borrowing a jacket two sizes out.
Can several Wokingham venues share a contract?
One account manager, one invoice. Multi-site operators across Wokingham are the norm rather than the exception, and the round does not change — only the drop list does.
- Each site keeps its own par level. A 30-cover bistro and a 200-cover brasserie should not carry the same stock, and averaging them is how one site runs short every weekend.
- Consolidated billing on one invoice, itemised by site — one number for finance, the detail for whoever asks.
- Adding a site later is a change to the drop list, not a new contract or a new supplier relationship.
What time does the van come in Sonning?
Before the doors, not during them. The RG4 round is planned around service times, which is the difference between a supplier who works here and one who merely delivers here.
- Deliveries land before the doors open, which is the difference between laying up calmly and laying up at speed.
- If a run is disrupted — a road closure, a breakdown — we come back the same day. At 27.6 miles that is a decision, not a logistics exercise.
Sonning is quiet midweek and full at weekends — does that work?
We size the account on your peak. Averaging a quiet Tuesday with a full Saturday produces a number that is wrong on both nights.
- We count a real week in Sonning — not an estimate, and not the number inherited from whoever quoted before us.
- Reviewed after a full month of live usage and adjusted, with no renegotiation and no change fee.
- Seasonal swing is expected — RG4 trade moves across the year, and the par level should move with it rather than being agreed once and forgotten.
Is the RG4 service hire only, or wash-only as well?
Either, and mixed accounts are normal. Hire from us, or we launder stock you already own — the RG4 round collects both the same way and on the same docket.
- Owned stock stays yours. We do not buy it off you at a discount to simplify the paperwork.
- Hire covers replacement — wear, loss and staining are ours to carry rather than a line that appears on your invoice each quarter.
- Most Sonning accounts run both: hired table linen where volume is high, owned chef whites where the branding matters.
Is there a minimum order?
No, and no tie-in either. A 24-cover room in Sonning is a stop on an existing run, not a trip we have to justify.
- Cafés and bars sit alongside restaurants and are priced the same way: on usage, not on category.
- No tie-in and no volume threshold — a slow month does not move you onto a worse rate.
- Growing later is a par-level change, not a renegotiation — adding a second flat does not reopen the contract.
- No exit fee. If it is not working, you say so and we collect our stock.
Not covered here?
Ask us directlyThe greenest wash is the one Sonning does not repeat
Most of the environmental cost of restaurant linen is rewashing and early replacement, not the wash itself — a cloth retired at the first oil mark has cost more than one washed twice. In Sonning there is a second saving: the kitchens here sit close enough together that one round covers them, instead of separate journeys out from Wembley.
- One RG4 round serves Sonning, Charvil and Woodley — 3 areas, one set of miles.
- A 27.6-mile plant distance is the transport cost of every collection here — it is why routing matters more than detergent.
- Water from the final rinse is recovered and feeds the next wash rather than the drain.
- Oil and wine marks are re-treated before an item is retired. Most recover.
