What goes wrong
Three things that cost Sunninghill cafes a supplier
Almost nobody around SL5 changes linen supplier to save money. They change because the same thing went wrong three weeks running.
-
Deliveries that land after opening
A cafe opens earlier than almost anything else on the street. A drop timed for mid-morning is a drop that missed the shift it was for, and in Sunninghill that means serving the first hours on yesterday's cloths.
-
Cloths that come back grey
Coffee oil, milk protein and syrup are not the same soil as food service. Washed on a general cycle they build up, whites go dull within weeks, and the counter is where it shows.
-
Running short on the busy day
Par counts set on a quiet Tuesday leave you short on Saturday. Most Sunninghill cafes are not short of linen overall — they are short of it twice a week.
How it works
Four steps, and Sunninghill stops managing linen
Most of the work happens before the first collection. Get the count and the timing right and the service stops being something you manage.
-
The count
We look at a real week in Sunninghill: how many aprons a shift gets through, what is still in the wash when you open, and which two days you run short.
Half an hour, on site
-
The round
Sunninghill sits on the SL5 round at 19.2 miles out, so the drop time is set against your opening rather than against the traffic.
SL5 · 7 days
-
The switch
The changeover in Sunninghill overlaps by design — new stock lands while the old contract is still running, so no shift is caught between the two.
No gap in service
-
The account
The same person handles Sunninghill every week, which is why a change to your par count does not need explaining twice.
One name, not a queue
Running more than one site around Windsor and Maidenhead? The same account manager covers all of them, on staggered days so no site is left short.
How it is processed
Nothing from Sunninghill leaves our own plants
There are two buildings between your linen and ours, and we own both. Sunninghill collections run 19.2 miles to our Wembley plant. Nothing is passed to a third party in between.
Cafe soil is its own problem. Coffee oil, milk protein and syrup need a different wash to food-service linen, so aprons and cloths run on their own classification rather than whatever the machine was doing before.

Switching supplier in Sunninghill without missing an opening
The reason Sunninghill operators put up with a supplier they have stopped rating is timing: there is no good week to risk it. That is a scheduling problem, not a reason to stay.
- Before you commit
We count a real week, not an average one
We watch a full Sunninghill week rather than take a number off your last invoice — the invoice tells us what you were sold, not what you used.
- The handover
Stock lands before the old supplier stops
The two contracts overlap on purpose. Sunninghill gets its first delivery while the old supplier is still collecting, so there is no morning in between.
- After
Par counts adjust once we have seen a month
Any first count is a guess. The difference is whether anyone comes back and corrects it — after four weeks, we do.
Nothing here needs you to be out of contract first — the count and the quote cost nothing.
The week you switch is the week nobody notices.

Our members expect fresh sweat towels immediately after back-to-back spinning classes. They handle our daily volume seamlessly, and I would single out the punctuality and the clean, long-lasting scent of the eco-friendly detergents.
Marcus Thorne Studio Manager · Boutique fitness studio -
In clinical and aesthetic practice, hygiene standards have to meet rigorous compliance. High-temperature sanitised gowns, drapes and bed covers arrive reliably every week. I trust their quality control completely.
Dr Elena Rostova Clinic Director · Private healthcare clinic -
For high-end short-stay apartments, guest reviews live and die by linen quality. We get hotel-grade crispness that consistently earns us five-star cleanliness ratings, and the communication lines are short when something needs resolving.
Beatrice Dupont Head of Housekeeping · Luxury serviced apartments -
We use dozens of salon towels and client gowns every day. Stubborn hair dye and product stains come out effortlessly and our capes still look new. They are an indispensable part of the daily flow here.
Chloe St. Laurent Salon Owner & Manager · Hair & beauty salon -
We rely on clean bolster covers, fleece blankets and eye pillows. Delicate fabrics are treated with care while still getting a deep, hypoallergenic sanitisation, and everything comes back beautifully presented.
Hannah Sterling Studio Coordinator · Yoga & pilates studio -
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.

The area
Why Sunninghill is collected the way it is
An affluent village enclave between Ascot and Sunningdale, offering elite privacy and village charm. Unique to Sunninghill.
What makes Sunninghill its own job is how early it starts. The round is planned so the aprons are on the shelf before the first coffee, not halfway through the morning.

Sunninghill cafe laundry — the questions we get most
Is Sunninghill on a collection round?
Yes — Sunninghill sits on the SL5 round, 7 days, 19.2 miles from our Wembley plant.
- Shared with Ascot, Sunningdale and Virginia Water — adding you changes the schedule, not the route.
- A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, which is what 19.2 miles buys you.
Can we keep our own branded aprons in Sunninghill?
Both, and mixed accounts are normal. Plenty of Sunninghill accounts run half and half.
- Hire — the count is maintained for you, including the items that wear out first.
- Wash-only — your own branded aprons come back to you, the same items, not pooled.
- Plenty of cafes do both — hire what nobody sees, keep your own name on what the customer does.
How quickly can you top us up in Sunninghill?
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 Sunninghill cafes are not short of linen overall — the shortage has a shape, and the shape is Saturday.
- Seasonal swings are planned in — Sunninghill in December is not Sunninghill in February, and the par count should know that.
Is the food side priced separately?
No. Kitchen cloths and table linen go on the same SL5 collection and the same invoice.
- No second supplier and no second delivery day — because the menu grew.
- Chef whites, oven cloths and table linen — all available on the same account, hire or wash-only.
- 8 restaurants around SL5 are on this round too — the kitchen classification already runs on it weekly.
Is the Sunninghill delivery before or after opening?
That is the point of putting Sunninghill on the SL5 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.
- A mid-morning drop missed the shift it was for. We schedule against your opening time, not ours.
- If a drop is missed, a missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week.
Is there a reason our Sunninghill whites do not stay white?
Coffee oil, milk protein and syrup are not the same soil as food-service linen. Run on the wrong programme they accumulate rather than lift.
- Cafe cloths and aprons run on their own classification — the programme is chosen for them, not inherited.
- 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.
Are we tied into a long contract?
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 — we will count your week while you are still under someone else.
- Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — you are never between suppliers.
Is there a minimum order for a Sunninghill cafe?
No minimum, on any line. A one-site independent is the normal shape of a cafe account.
- Small sites go on the same SL5 round — the journey is already happening; you are a stop on it.
- 9 cafes around SL5 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.
Something specific to your Sunninghill cafe?
Ask us directlyRewashing Sunninghill linen is the real environmental cost
Most of the environmental cost of cafe linen is rewashing and replacing it. Getting the classification right the first time does more than any claim on a van.
- Sunninghill is a stop on a round that was already running, not a van dispatched for one site.
- Washing cafe soil on the right cycle is what stops stock being replaced every few months.
- A marked apron is repaired and put back into rotation, not written off.
- More than 80% of the fleet running into Windsor and Maidenhead is fully electric.
