Cafe Linen In Sturry Collected To Schedule

Yes — Sturry sits on the CT2 round, 7 days, 63.0 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Fordwich, Canterbury and Blean — adding you changes the schedule, not the route.
• The driver knows the streets around Sturry — route knowledge is most of what separates a kept window from a missed one.
• Collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens, because of that distance.

No minimum, on any line. Most of what we collect in CT2 is exactly that size.

• Small sites go on the same CT2 round — so you are not paying for a dedicated trip into Sturry.
• 6 cafes around CT2 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. One collection covers whichever way each line is set up.

• Hire — we own the stock, replace it as it wears and keep the par count topped up.
• Wash-only — item for item, never substituted.
• Plenty of cafes do both — branding matters on the apron, rarely on the tea towel behind the counter.

Tell your account manager and collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens.

• If it happens twice, the par count is wrong — we reset it against what you actually used, not what was estimated at setup.
• Most Sturry cafes are not short of linen overall — the shortage has a shape, and the shape is Saturday.
• Seasonal swings are planned in — Sturry in December is not Sturry in February, and the par count should know that.

No. Kitchen cloths and table linen go on the same CT2 collection and the same invoice.

• No second supplier and no second delivery day — the round does not change when the kitchen opens.
• Chef whites, oven cloths and table linen — added as lines, not as a new agreement.
• 1 restaurants around CT2 are on this round too — the kitchen classification already runs on it weekly.

That is the point of putting Sturry on the CT2 round rather than a separate trip. 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 Sturry so the van is not arriving into the worst of it.
• If a drop is missed, collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens.

Because cafe soil is chemically different from kitchen soil. 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 — too hot sets it into the fibre.
• Grey whites are usually a wash problem, not an age problem — a Sturry cafe buying aprons three times a year is paying for a bad cycle, not for wear.

No long-term tie-in and no exit fee.

• Terms flex with seasonal demand — rather than locking you into a winter volume you do not use in August.
• 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 — you are never between suppliers.
