Cafe Linen In West Barnes On The Morning Round

Yes — West Barnes sits on the KT3 round, 7 days, 11.4 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Motspur Park, Bushy Mead and New Malden — adding you changes the schedule, not the route.
• The driver knows the streets around Motspur Park and Raynes Park — the same crew runs it weekly, so nobody is reading a map on your doorstep.
• A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, because West Barnes is only 11.4 miles out.

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

• Hire — the count is maintained for you, including the items that wear out first.
• Wash-only — the same garments that left West Barnes, tracked, never swapped into a pool.
• Plenty of cafes do both — hire what nobody sees, keep your own name on what the customer does.

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 — we reset it against what you actually used, not what was estimated at setup.
• Most West Barnes cafes are not short of linen overall — the shortage has a shape, and the shape is Saturday.
• Seasonal swings are planned in — we set them ahead rather than react.

No. Kitchen cloths and table linen go on the same KT3 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 — priced per item on the account you already have.
• 33 restaurants around KT3 are on this round too — the kitchen classification already runs on it weekly.

Yes — the KT3 round is sequenced by opening time. Cafes open earlier than almost anything else we serve.

• The time is agreed when the account opens — not left to whenever the van happens to reach West Barnes.
• Timed around Motspur Park so the van is not arriving into the worst of it.
• If a drop is missed, a missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week.

It is the wash, not the cloth. A cycle built for table linen leaves them behind.

• Cafe cloths and aprons run on their own classification — not as the tail end of a kitchen load.
• Milk protein needs the right temperature, not just a hotter one — too hot sets it into the fibre.
• Grey whites are usually a wash problem, not an age problem — a West Barnes cafe buying aprons three times a year is paying for a bad cycle, not for wear.

No long-term tie-in and no exit fee.

• Terms flex with seasonal demand — you are not held to a peak figure through a quiet quarter.
• Nothing needs you to be out of your current contract first — there is no cost to finding out what it would look like.
• Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — the two overlap by design.

No minimum, on any line. Most of what we collect in KT3 is exactly that size.

• Small sites go on the same KT3 round — the journey is already happening; you are a stop on it.
• 19 cafes around KT3 are already on it — so the round is built for counters, not bolted on to a hotel run.
• Volume changes are expected — a quiet January in West Barnes and a busy July are the same account.
