What goes wrong
Three things that cost White City kitchens a supplier
Almost nobody around W12 changes linen supplier to save money. They change because the same thing went wrong three weeks running.
-
Whites that are not actually white
Grease and protein need their own wash. Run through a front-of-house cycle they build up, and a White City brigade ends up in jackets that look tired in a month.
-
Sizes that turn into a scramble
A box of mixed whites at the start of a shift is a box someone has to sort. Named and sized garments on a rail take that job off the pass entirely.
-
Deliveries that land mid-prep
A drop timed for the middle of prep is a drop nobody in White City can receive. The round has to be planned around service, not around the traffic.
How it works
Four steps, and the White City head chef stops managing linen
Most of the work happens before the first collection. Get the sizing and the timing right and the service stops being something the pass has to think about.
-
The count
We size the brigade and count a real week in White City — how many jackets a section gets through in summer, not the number on last year's order.
An hour, on site
-
The round
The van is already in W12. Joining that round is what keeps a small brigade priced as a stop rather than a journey.
W12 · 7 days
-
The switch
The changeover in White City overlaps by design — the new rail is hung while the old contract is still running.
No gap in service
-
The account
The same person handles White City every week, which is why a size change does not need explaining twice.
One name, not a queue
Running more than one kitchen around Hammersmith and Fulham? The same account manager covers all of them, on staggered days so no site is left short.
How it is processed
No third party touches White City chef whites
There are two buildings between your linen and ours, and we own both. White City collections run 4.3 miles to our Wembley plant. Nothing is passed to a third party in between.
Grease lifts at a different temperature from protein, and scorch responds to neither. Kitchen garments are classified for that rather than run on a general cycle.

A White City switch nobody on the pass notices
The reason White City head chefs put up with a supplier they have stopped rating is timing: there is no good week to gamble. That is a scheduling problem, not a reason to stay.
- Before you commit
We size the brigade properly
We size the White City brigade in person rather than take a headcount off an invoice — the invoice tells us what you were sold, not what fits.
- The handover
Whites land before the old supplier stops
You are never between suppliers. The new rail is hung before the last collection of the old contract.
- After
New starters go on the account the same week
Brigades change constantly. The account is set up so a new starter is a phone call, not a reorder.
Nothing here needs you to be out of contract first — the count and the quote cost nothing.
The week you switch is the week nobody notices.

Our membership expects discretion and immaculate standards. Dining room linens and guest suites are laundered to a bespoke standard, and the discretion around our account has been absolute.
Alistair Finch Club Secretary & General Manager · Private members' club -
LP Laundry has been an absolute game-changer for our 45-room boutique hotel. Turnaround on our bed linens and heavy plush towels is inside 24 hours without a single delay. We could not be happier with the crisp, immaculate finish.
Charlotte Vance Front of House & Accommodation Manager · 45-room boutique hotel -
Running a high-end spa means going through hundreds of bathrobes and spa towels daily. Our rotation stays fully stocked with exceptionally soft, hygienically pristine textiles. Guest comfort has noticeably improved since we switched.
Siobhan O'Connor Spa Operations Director · Luxury health club & spa -
Our members expect fresh sweat towels immediately after back-to-back spinning classes. They handle our daily volume seamlessly, and I would single out the punctuality and the clean, long-lasting scent of the eco-friendly detergents.
Marcus Thorne Studio Manager · Boutique fitness studio -
In clinical and aesthetic practice, hygiene standards have to meet rigorous compliance. High-temperature sanitised gowns, drapes and bed covers arrive reliably every week. I trust their quality control completely.
Dr Elena Rostova Clinic Director · Private healthcare clinic -
For high-end short-stay apartments, guest reviews live and die by linen quality. We get hotel-grade crispness that consistently earns us five-star cleanliness ratings, and the communication lines are short when something needs resolving.
Beatrice Dupont Head of Housekeeping · Luxury serviced apartments -
We use dozens of salon towels and client gowns every day. Stubborn hair dye and product stains come out effortlessly and our capes still look new. They are an indispensable part of the daily flow here.
Chloe St. Laurent Salon Owner & Manager · Hair & beauty salon -
We rely on clean bolster covers, fleece blankets and eye pillows. Delicate fabrics are treated with care while still getting a deep, hypoallergenic sanitisation, and everything comes back beautifully presented.

Local knowledge
Why White City is collected the way it is
Refined riverside living with a mix of leafy residential streets, professional hubs, and premier shopping. Unique to White City.
White City is collected 7 days on a shared round, so a two-section kitchen here costs a stop rather than a journey.

White City questions, answered
Is White City on a kitchen round?
Yes — White City sits on the W12 round, 7 days, 4.3 miles from our Wembley plant.
- Shared with Shepherds Bush, Notting Hill and North Kensington — the same vehicle covers them, so a brigade here can be added without moving anyone else.
- The driver knows the service entrances around Shepherd's Bush Market, White City and Wood Lane — the same crew runs it weekly, so nobody is looking for your back door.
- A missed morning window here is recoverable the same day, which is what 4.3 miles buys you.
- 362 kitchens around W12 are already on this round — which is why the timings suit prep and service rather than check-out.
Is there a minimum term?
No long-term tie-in and no exit fee.
- Terms flex with seasonal demand — White City in August and White City in January are different kitchens, and the account should say so.
- Nothing needs you to be out of your current contract first — we will size your brigade 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 — we would rather correct the account than lose it.
Can we keep our own embroidered jackets in White City?
Both, and mixed accounts are normal. The two sit on one invoice and one round.
- Hire — stock, replacement and sizing are ours; you never place an order.
- Wash-only — the same whites that left White City, tracked by name, never swapped into a pool.
- Plenty of kitchens do both — hire what nobody reads, keep your own name on the whites.
- You can move a line between the two later — kitchens often start on hire and move their jackets across once the branding is settled.
Why do our jackets go grey?
Yes — kitchen soil is classified separately from front of house.
- Grease, protein and scorch need their own wash — grease lifts at a different temperature from protein, and scorch responds to neither.
- Whites never run through the cycle the table linen was on — that transfer is what dulls a brigade's whites inside a month.
- Colour-coded cloths stay in their own classification — through the whole process.
- Every load is temperature logged — and the log is against your account, not a general plant figure.
What would a White City brigade cost to kit out?
There is no honest price list for kitchen work. Two kitchens with the same headcount can differ twofold in wear rate, which is why we count first.
- We count a real week in White City before quoting — including the summer weeks, which is where most estimates fall over.
- No minimum order — a two-section White City kitchen is priced per item, same as a brigade of thirty.
- The count includes your busy season — a White City kitchen quoted off a quiet month runs short in the one that matters.
- The count and the quote cost nothing — we will count your week while you are still under someone else.
Are contract caterers on the round?
Yes. Contract catering, schools and care homes are all on the rounds.
- 45 school kitchens around W12 are already on the round — we are not learning catering work on your account.
- 9 care home kitchens nearby — with the same named-garment handling.
- Colour-coded cloths and named whites — which is what an inspection actually looks for.
- Contract caterers running several sites — get one account manager and staggered collection days across the group.
A new commis starts Monday — how fast can you kit them out?
In person, section by section — not off a headcount.
- Every section is sized at setup — not estimated from a headcount.
- A new commis goes on the account the same week — rather than waiting for an order cycle.
- Garments are named — the rail is ready and nobody is hunting for their size.
- Par counts are re-set after the first month — once we have seen a real White City month rather than a first guess.
Can you deliver outside prep and service?
Yes — the W12 round is sequenced around service patterns.
- The time is agreed when the account opens — it goes on the round sheet, not into a delivery window.
- Timed around Shepherd's Bush Market and the traffic that comes with it.
- If a drop is missed, a missed morning window here is recoverable the same day.
- A relief driver inherits the window with the route — holidays and sickness are the usual cause of a missed slot elsewhere; here the slot travels with the round sheet.
Something specific to your White City kitchen?
Ask us directlyThe greenest wash is the one White City does not repeat
Most of the environmental cost of kitchen linen is rewashing and replacing it. Classifying kitchen soil properly the first time does more than any claim on a van.
- One vehicle covers W12, so adding White City adds a stop rather than a journey.
- Whites washed on the right classification last longer before replacement.
- Hire garments are repaired and rotated rather than binned at the first scorch mark.
- More than 80% of the fleet running into Hammersmith and Fulham is fully electric.
