Cafe Linen In Tunbridge Wells Collected To Schedule

Yes — Tunbridge Wells sits on the TN1 round, 7 days, 37.9 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Southborough, Tonbridge and Hildenborough — the same vehicle covers them, which is why a counter here can be added without moving anyone else.
• The driver knows the streets around Tunbridge Wells West and Tunbridge Wells — which matters more at seven in the morning than it does at eleven.
• Collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens, because Tunbridge Wells is only 37.9 miles out.

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 — a second shortage is a counting error, and we correct it.
• Most Tunbridge Wells cafes are not short of linen overall — the shortage has a shape, and the shape is Saturday.
• Seasonal swings are planned in — Tunbridge Wells in December is not Tunbridge Wells in February, and the par count should know that.

No. Kitchen cloths and table linen go on the same TN1 collection and the same invoice.

• No second supplier and no second delivery day — one account covers both sides of the counter.
• Chef whites, oven cloths and table linen — all available on the same account, hire or wash-only.
• 25 restaurants around TN1 are on this round too — we are not learning kitchen work on your account.

That is the point of putting Tunbridge Wells on the TN1 round rather than a separate trip. Cafes open earlier than almost anything else we serve.

• The time is agreed when the account opens — it goes on the round sheet, not into a delivery window.
• Timed around Tunbridge Wells West and the traffic that comes with 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 — 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.

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.

No minimum, on any line. A one-site independent is the normal shape of a cafe account.

• Small sites go on the same TN1 round — which is why size barely moves the per-item price.
• 28 cafes around TN1 are already on it — which is why the timings suit opening rather than check-out.
• Volume changes are expected — a quiet January in Tunbridge Wells and a busy July are the same account.

Both, and mixed accounts are normal. One collection covers whichever way each line is set up.

• Hire — stock, replacement and par management are ours; you never reorder.
• Wash-only — item for item, never substituted.
• Plenty of cafes do both — hired glass cloths and tea towels, own-branded aprons on wash-only.
