Cafe Linen In Winnersh Collected To Schedule

Yes — Winnersh sits on the RG41 round, 7 days, 27.3 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Woodley, Earley and Hurst — one van, one run, which is what keeps a single-site account sensible to price.
• The driver knows the streets around Winnersh Triangle and Winnersh — the same crew runs it weekly, so nobody is reading a map on your doorstep.
• Collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens, because of that distance.

No. Kitchen cloths and table linen go on the same RG41 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.
• 3 restaurants around RG41 are on this round too — we are not learning kitchen work on your account.

Yes — the RG41 round is sequenced by opening time. 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 Winnersh Triangle and the traffic that comes with it.
• If a drop is missed, collections here run to scheduled days, agreed when the account opens.

Coffee oil, milk protein and syrup are not the same soil as food-service linen. On a general cycle they build up and whites dull within weeks.

• 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 — 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 — you are not held to a peak figure through a quiet quarter.
• 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 — so there is never a morning in Winnersh with nothing clean.

No minimum, on any line. Most of what we collect in RG41 is exactly that size.

• Small sites go on the same RG41 round — the journey is already happening; you are a stop on it.
• 9 cafes around RG41 are already on it — which is why the timings suit opening rather than check-out.
• Volume changes are expected — a quiet January in Winnersh and a busy July are the same account.

Both, and mixed accounts are normal. Plenty of Winnersh accounts run half and half.

• Hire — the count is maintained for you, including the items that wear out first.
• Wash-only — the same garments that left Winnersh, tracked, never swapped into a pool.
• Plenty of cafes do both — branding matters on the apron, rarely on the tea towel behind the counter.

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 Winnersh cafes are not short of linen overall — the weekly total is fine; the weekend distribution is not.
• Seasonal swings are planned in — Winnersh in December is not Winnersh in February, and the par count should know that.
