If you are reading this article then it’s highly likely that you work within the hospitality industry and that might be in a large hotel or a very busy restaurant. Whatever your circumstances, it is clear to see that your business needs linen supplied on a regular basis and it might be that you’re thinking of setting up your own laundry in which to do so. This makes absolutely no financial sense at all because you’re going to have to find a dedicated space to do the work, then you’re going to have to find an employee and then you have to buy all of the equipment needed.
It makes a lot more sense to take advantage of table linen hire because of the many cost savings that you can take advantage of. It means that you don’t have to hire any additional people and you don’t have to buy other things like detergent in order to be able to guarantee your business clean linens every single day. There are a number of cost savings to be had and the following are just some of those.
- No additional staff needed – As was mentioned briefly before, you don’t need to hire additional staff which is a costly proposition and think of the hiring process and the interviewing the squad have to take place first. This can all be avoided by contracting out your table linen needs and letting someone else do the work for you.
- No extra space needed – Not only do you have to set up your own laundry room and buy all of the equipment needed but you also have to set aside space to store all of your linens as well. You’re also going to be handling the dirty linen as well and you’re going to need somewhere to dry them if you don’t want to rely completely on your clothes dryer.
- You get all the latest styles – Your table linen hire specialist will be keeping up with current trends within the hospitality industry and so they will be purchasing all of the latest styles for you so that you don’t have to spend any of your money.
It just makes more sense to save yourself money by hiring the table linens and other linens that you need to keep your business flowing and to keep your guests happy. You will be making a very smart financial decision when you decide to hire out your linen rather than to purchase it outright.
