Our process weekly process from start to finish:
Collection & Delivery
One of the key conveniences offered by industrial laundry workwear rental services is the seamless collection and delivery process. Customers have set delivery days, for collection of soiled garments and drop-offs of freshly laundered garments.
This streamlined process eliminates the hassle of managing laundry in-house and ensures that employees always have access to clean and well-maintained workwear.
Many industrial laundry service providers offer once-weekly deliveries. This schedule allows for efficient rotation of clean linen and workwear, ensuring that employees are consistently supplied with fresh garments.
By opting for once-weekly deliveries, businesses can optimise their operational efficiency and focus on core activities without worrying about the logistics of laundry management.
Checking in of clean linen and workwear
All garments are issued with a barcode and are sub-sorted upon arrival to our site and scanned into the laundry. During this process, the garments are checked for debris in pockets and any unwanted items are removed prior to wash.
Sundry items like kitchen cloths or hand towels without a barcode are counted and inputted into our system.
Wash & Dry
After the garments are checked in, they are sorted into wash loads with the correct weight for the washing machine.
The garments are placed into the machine and washed, once complete the wash load is removed and placed into the industrial dryers to be dried.
Repairs
Once the load is dry, each garment is inspected for damage.
Garment inspections are a critical aspect of our commercial laundering services. Before garments are returned, they undergo thorough inspections to ensure they meet quality standards and are free from defects or damages.
These inspections involve checking for stains, tears, missing buttons, zips, or any other issues that may affect the garment’s appearance or functionality. By conducting regular inspections, we maintain the integrity of their clients’ workwear and uphold their commitment to delivering high-quality products.
Fold & Pack Out
After the garment inspection is complete, the garment is folded and placed into the racking on the folding table. The garments are sorted by customer and in locker order.
Once folded, each customer is packed out into hamper bags and the relevant delivery note is placed into the hamper bag with the correct hamper bag tag.
Routes
The hamper bags are then placed onto the right delivery cage and put into route order ready to be delivered back on the agreed delivery day.
The day prior to the delivery, the route coordinator organises the cage of clean linen and workwear into route order, along with picking any sundry items like dust mats ready for the delivery the next day.
