Commercial Linen In Swallowfield Collected To Schedule

Yes — Swallowfield sits on the RG7 round, 31.6 miles from our Wembley plant. and 3 pubs and bars are on the same run.

• Shared with Spencers Wood, Arborfield and Grazeley — 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, set once with you, then kept — not re-planned each morning by a scheduling system.
• a 31.6-mile round trip is short enough that a missed collection is recovered on the next run, not the next week.

It depends entirely on the mark. Oil, wine and wax behave differently in a wash, and treating them the same is how cloths come back looking tired after a season.

• 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, cold and mechanically — a hot cycle is what makes candle wax permanent.

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, ready to hang up — which is the only state a chef jacket is useful in.
• Cloths are bagged by type — glass, oven, waiter — so the right cloth is where it should be before service starts.
• Sizes are held in stock, so hiring someone does not mean borrowing a jacket two sizes out.

Yes, and it usually costs less. Sites on the same Wokingham rounds share the journey, which is the whole reason a group rate exists.

• Each site keeps its own par level. The busy site gets the depth it needs without the quiet one paying for stock it never uses.
• 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.

Before the doors, not during them. The RG7 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, so setup starts with a full cupboard instead of a count of what survived last night.
• If a run is disrupted — a road closure, a breakdown — we come back the same day. At 31.6 miles that is a decision, not a logistics exercise.

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 Swallowfield — 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 — RG7 trade moves across the year, and the par level should move with it rather than being agreed once and forgotten.

Either, and mixed accounts are normal. Hire from us, or we launder stock you already own — the RG7 round collects both the same way and on the same docket.

• Owned stock stays yours. What you bought, you keep — including the items we would not have chosen.
• Hire covers replacement — which is usually the larger number over a year, because linen wears out in public.
• Most Swallowfield accounts run both: hired table linen where volume is high, owned chef whites where the branding matters.

No, and no tie-in either. A 24-cover room in Swallowfield is a stop on an existing run, not a trip we have to justify.

• Cafés and bars sit alongside restaurants on the same round — the vehicle does not care what is on the sign outside.
• 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.
