Gym & Spa Towels In Tilehurst Collected To Schedule

Yes — Tilehurst sits on the RG30 round, 7 days, 33.1 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Calcot, Purley on Thames and Tidmarsh — adding you changes the schedule, not the route.
• Collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens, because of that distance.
• 3 clubs and spas around RG30 are already on this round — which is why the timings suit an evening peak rather than a hotel check-out.

Yes — a gym floor and a spa want opposite things from a towel. Volume on one side of the building, finish on the other.

• Robes are laundered to keep their handle — softness is the point on a robe, and it is achieved by the wash rather than by softener.
• Bath mats run on a heavier classification — because wet-area linen takes a different kind of soil.
• One collection, one invoice — even where the two sides of the building want different specs.
• Hotel spas are a normal account — the bed linen side can go on the same round.

No long-term tie-in and no exit fee. Nothing in the agreement is designed to make leaving awkward.

• Terms flex with seasonal demand — Tilehurst in January and Tilehurst in August are different clubs, and the account should say so.
• Nothing needs you to be out of your current contract first — we will count your peak while you are still under someone else.
• Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — you are never between suppliers.
• If it is not working, say so — most problems are a wrong par count or a wrong delivery window, and both are fixable without changing supplier.

Because the wash was wrong, not because the towel is finished. A towel can pass inspection dry and fail it in use, because oil only announces itself once the towel warms up.

• Gym towelling runs on its own classification — the programme is chosen for body oil rather than inherited from whatever ran before.
• Oil needs a different temperature from sweat — and softener makes it worse by coating the fibre, which is why we do not use it on gym stock.
• Towels that stop absorbing are usually over-softened, not worn out — and the fix costs nothing but a change of classification.
• Every load is temperature logged — so there is a record behind the classification rather than an assurance.

Shrinkage is normal and predictable. We plan for it rather than dispute it.

• Expected loss is built into the par count at setup — rather than discovered in month three.
• You get the actual numbers each cycle — rather than a running balance nobody can reconcile.
• A sudden jump in loss is worth knowing about — and we would rather flag it than absorb it quietly.
• On hire, fair wear is our cost — you pay for the service, not for towels reaching the end of their life.

It is quoted, not tariffed. Towel volume depends on member numbers and how hard the floor turns over, so a published list would be wrong for most clubs.

• We count a real week in Tilehurst before quoting — rather than pricing off your last invoice.
• The count includes January — which is the one spike everybody knows is coming and most quotes ignore.
• No minimum order — so a boutique studio is an ordinary account and is priced per item like any other.
• The count and the quote cost nothing — and commit you to nothing.

By counting against your peak rather than your daily average. Towel demand does not spread evenly across opening hours — it stacks, and an average hides exactly that.

• We count on site at the time it matters — not from a figure on your last invoice.
• A Monday evening and a Sunday morning are different businesses — the par level has to survive both, so it is set against the worse of the two.
• January is planned in — a Tilehurst club in January is not the same club in August, and the account should say so.
• If you run short twice, the count is wrong — a second shortage is a counting error, not bad luck.

Both, and mixed accounts are normal. The two sit on one invoice and one round.

• Hire — the rack is maintained for you, including the towels that fail first.
• Wash-only — item for item, never substituted.
• Most clubs split it — the logo matters on a robe, rarely on a sweat towel.
• You can move a line between the two later — clubs often start on hire and move the spa side across once branding is settled.
