Hotel Linen In Summerstown Collected On Round

Yes — Summerstown sits on the SW17 round, 10.1 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Wimbledon Park, Colliers Wood and Tooting — one van, one run, which is what keeps the cost of a small account sensible.
• The driver knows the roads around Tooting Broadway, Colliers Wood and South Wimbledon — 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.

Whichever suits the property — and it can change as the property does.

• On hire we hold and replace the stock, which takes linen off your balance sheet entirely.
• Wash-only keeps your linen yours, with damaged items flagged rather than quietly retired.
• Mixed is common — hire the towelling, wash-only the bedding.
• Stock ageing is our cost, not yours — greying, fraying and losses are carried by us rather than appearing on your invoice each quarter, which is usually the larger number over a year.

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, so housekeeping never opens an empty cupboard.
• The audit is free and carries no obligation.
• 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 — a time, not a window.

• Same driver each week — familiar faces make short conversations, and short conversations keep the round on time.
• Planned around check-out, so linen leaves as rooms are stripped.
• Changeable — seasons shift, occupancy shifts, the slot can shift with them.
• Recovery is same-day, not next-round — 10.1 miles is close enough that the fix is hours away.

Yes, and it is usually cheaper and simpler than separate accounts.

• One account manager across every Merton site.
• One invoice, broken down per property so you can still see where it goes.
• Par stock tracked per site — so a quiet property does not quietly fund a busy one.
• Finance sees one number, each site sees its own — so nobody reconciles it by hand at the end of the month.

No minimum. The van is in SW17 regardless — you are not the reason for the journey.

• Same turnaround regardless of size — small accounts are not queued behind large ones.
• No small-volume premium, and no rounding up to a notional minimum.
• Seasonal properties welcome — we would rather hold the slot than lose the relationship.
• No exit fee either — no notice period dressed up as a minimum term.

Agreed before the first collection, not on the morning.

• Loading bay, service lift or back entrance — recorded against the account so a relief driver has it too.
• Timed around Tooting Broadway and the traffic that comes with it.
• Nine times in ten, a missed first collection is an access problem — not the laundry, not the van, the door.
• The mileage is not billed back to you — you are joining an existing journey rather than paying for a new one, which is why a small Summerstown account is still worth having.
• 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, 10.1 miles from Summerstown. 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 — traceability only works when there is one chain to trace.
• You can visit. Clients who come tend to sign.
• 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.
