Cafe Linen In West Drayton On The Morning Round

Yes — West Drayton sits on the UB7 round, 7 days, 8.7 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Yiewsley, Cowley and Iver — one van, one run, which is what keeps a single-site account sensible to price.
• The driver knows the streets around West Drayton — route knowledge is most of what separates a kept window from a missed one.
• A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, because of that distance.

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 — the programme is chosen for them, not inherited.
• Milk protein needs the right temperature, not just a hotter one — past a point, heat bonds the protein to the cloth.
• Grey whites are usually a wash problem, not an age problem — a West Drayton 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 — West Drayton in February and West Drayton in July are different businesses, and the account should say so.
• 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 — the two overlap by design.

No minimum, on any line. A single-site independent cafe in West Drayton is an ordinary account for us.

• Small sites go on the same UB7 round — which is why size barely moves the per-item price.
• 4 cafes around UB7 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 Drayton 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 — the count is maintained for you, including the items that wear out first.
• Wash-only — item for item, never substituted.
• Plenty of cafes do both — branding matters on the apron, rarely on the tea towel behind the counter.

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 — and resetting it is our job, not a favour.
• Most West Drayton cafes are not short of linen overall — the shortage has a shape, and the shape is Saturday.
• Seasonal swings are planned in — rather than handled as emergencies.

No. Kitchen cloths and table linen go on the same UB7 collection and the same invoice.

• No second supplier and no second delivery day — the round does not change when the kitchen opens.
• Chef whites, oven cloths and table linen — all available on the same account, hire or wash-only.
• 14 restaurants around UB7 are on this round too — so the food side is not an afterthought here.

That is the point of putting West Drayton on the UB7 round rather than a separate trip. Cafes open earlier than almost anything else we serve.

• The time is agreed when the account opens — and a relief driver inherits it with the route.
• Timed around West Drayton 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.
