I have been in the linen business for over 20 years. Never before have I seen so many deceptive business dealings. If any business owners are reading this please review your contracts very carefully.  if you do not understand the fine print please feel free to contact me. Just a few things to watch for.
Almost all contracts from the nationwide companies now have automatic renewals of 72 months. it does not require your signature to be legally binding.
Price increases. Almost all contracts have price increases built-in which would be a certain percentage or the consumer price index whichever is higher. this is a yearly occurrence. 10% one time is not a big deal. 10% every year over a six year contract and you will be paying double what you agreed to.
Losses and damages. route drivers are paid on commission so the more they can add to your bill the more money they make.
Inventory. Now more than ever with the spread of infectious diseases each customer should have their own linen specific to their account. those towels you might have wiped your face were probably use to wipe something else just a couple of days before. viruses can live in linen for up to two weeks.
Infection control. If your laundry provider is still using traditional washing processes with harsh chemicals it’s time for an upgrade. bleach and hot water will not always eliminate viruses. Traditional chemicals and waste from these outdated processes are terrible for our environment.
Please check out our website to learn more about our Ozone laundering process which eliminates viruses, including super bugs, 100% chemical free.
Psalm “63 O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;
2 To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.
3 Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.
4 Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.
5 My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips:
6 When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches.
7 Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.
8 My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.
9 But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth.
10 They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.
11 But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.
