A clear brief gets you an accurate specialist laundry quote faster and avoids surprises on collection day. This guide gives a fill-in structure covering location, textile types, contamination, volume, collection pattern and contacts, for care providers, housing teams, councils and businesses.
In brief: include full postcodes, what the textiles are, what they have been exposed to, how much there is and how you estimated it, how often you need collections, and who can approve.
The brief, section by section
Location
Full postcodes for every site, with access notes such as parking, loading points or security.
Textile types
Bedding, clothing, towels, pet bedding, curtains or throws. List delicate, wool and dry-clean-only items separately.
Contamination
Say plainly: bed bugs, a flea problem, incontinence soiling, or more than one. Each changes handling.
Volume
Estimated kilograms or bags per collection, and how you estimated it. Our specialist laundry is priced by weight with a published minimum.
Collection pattern
One-off incident, regular schedule, or both.
Contacts
Who approves, who hands over on the day, who receives invoices.
What we will confirm back
- Whether each postcode can be collected.
- Which items are suitable.
- Which published prices apply and what is quoted.
- Expected timing, subject to slots.
MyLaundress holds seven London council contracts for specialist laundry services. That is a statement about the contracts we hold, not a council endorsement, and it does not mean every contract covers every specialist service.
Specialist laundry is available in London and across the rest of the United Kingdom, subject to postcode, textile suitability and agreed collection arrangements. Ordinary laundry and everyday dry cleaning remain London services, and London urgent-collection wording is not a national response promise.
