Restaurant Linen In Wandsworth Collected On Round

42 restaurants in Wandsworth sit inside the area we already collect from, 8.2 miles from our Wembley plant. Alongside them, 46 cafés and 27 pubs and bars are on the same run.

• Shared with Clapham Junction, Southfields and Earlsfield — the round already passes, so you are joining a journey rather than paying for a new one.
• 7 days collections, set once with you, then kept — not re-planned each morning by a scheduling system.
• an 8.2-mile round trip keeps the recovery window short — the plant is close enough to come back.

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 rather than sent back for you to find. Re-treatment first, replacement only if it fails.
• Wax is lifted before wash, not melted through the fabric by a hot cycle, which is what sets it permanently.

Front of house and back of house, one collection. Whites and cloths travel with the tablecloths, on one docket and one bill.

• Whites come back on hangers, sized and named where you want them named, so they go straight to the changing area rather than onto a pile.
• Cloths are bagged by type — glass, oven, waiter — because sorting a mixed bag at 5pm is nobody's job.
• Sizes are held in stock, so hiring someone does not mean borrowing a jacket two sizes out.

One contact for all of them. Running several Wandsworth sites through one account is the common case here, not a special arrangement.

• Each site keeps its own par level. A 30-cover bistro and a 200-cover brasserie should not carry the same stock, and averaging them is how one site runs short every weekend.
• Consolidated billing with a per-site breakdown, so a head office sees one number and each kitchen still sees its own.
• Adding a site later is a change to the drop list, not a new contract or a new supplier relationship.

Outside service, both ways. The SW18 slot is agreed before the account opens and does not move week to week — it is a fixed place on a round, not a two-hour window that lands mid-lunch.

• Access around Wandsworth Town is planned into the route rather than discovered on the day. Loading restrictions and one-way systems are the reason most suppliers drift late 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 — a 8.2-mile plant means the fix is hours away rather than days.

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 Wandsworth — covers midweek, covers at the weekend, and how many cloths a turn actually costs you rather than what the last supplier's sheet said.
• Reviewed after a full month once there is real data rather than a first guess — at no cost either way.
• Seasonal swing is expected — SW18 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 SW18 round collects both the same way and on the same docket.

• Owned stock stays yours. We do not buy it off you at a discount to simplify the paperwork.
• Hire covers replacement — the cost of a cloth reaching the end of its life sits with us, not with you.
• Most Wandsworth accounts run both: hired table linen where volume is high, owned chef whites where the branding matters.

Nothing is too small if you are on the round. Wandsworth already is, so the question is what you use, not how much.

• Cafés and bars sit alongside restaurants on the same run, and a 24-cover room is priced on what it actually uses.
• 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.
