What Really Goes Into A Linen Rental and Laundry Service

/in , /by

Even though we work with quality linen, uniform and napkin service companies we rarely handle the products ourselves.  Well sure enough we got a shipment of linens delivered right to our office and had the pleasure of working in blood, sweat and tears (perhaps a small exaggeration) while laundering the linens and folding all 267 (that’s an approximate #) of them by hand.

We already know linen service companies work extremely hard to provide quality services to their customers but having done this task ourselves has given us an even greater appreciation of the work they do on a daily basis.  This also proves that any business can benefit from a quality linen service, even ours!

Well that turned out to be a task and a half.

We’ll definitely leave this up to our pro’s next time.

Healthcare services expected to rise


The linen and uniform industry is full of competition, which means either be on the cutting edge or get left behind. There are many ways that linen and uniform companies try to stand out above the rest, but where should you invest your time and money? Here are the top trends that will affect your linen and uniform company in 2015:

1. Increased Productivity – New innovations allowing for increased automation will become available in 2015 with new and improved flatwork ironing machines and automated washrooms. The new machinery will allow your company to cut costs and increase employee output per hour.

2. Health Care Sales Growth – As the baby boomer generation continues to age so will the need for healthcare services to take care of them. The demand for healthcare linen services will continue to rise, so 2015 is a great time to decide how your company will handle this industry growth.

3. Automating Sales– Many businesses are already taking advantage of this helpful technology, but if yours isn’t you should seriously consider implementing it in 2015. Automating sales allows your company to watch the effectiveness of your sales representatives and ensure they are closing as many accounts as possible.

4. GPS Based Route Automation – Who wouldn’t want to cut their delivery times and gas bills? GPS based route automation is becoming a staple technology for most laundry service companies. It accurately tracks your shipments and ensures your delivering to your customers in the fastest and most efficient way possible.

5. A Development in Nano-Fabrics – The final trend to look for in 2015 and beyond is already being tested in many R&D departments around the world. Imagine linens that automatically dispel odors, stains, and other contaminants; or even chemical dyes in linens that destroy viruses and bacteria. These technological breakthroughs may not happen in 2015 but they will eventually happen, and when they do you should be ready for them.

In an already fast paced industry, 2015 will be a year of new developments and innovation. Just doing what you have always done for the last 100 years will not work anymore, be prepared for change and embrace it to make 2015 a year of growth and success.

A great way to boost your sales and keep up with competitors is by partnering with Linen Service to increase your leads and close more accounts. Find out more by viewing our FAQ’s or call 888-770-2489 to speak to a lead gen professional.

“Why do Linen Companies Suck?”

/in /by

As I was reviewing our website data, I came across a laugh out loud funny search query a user Googled last month, “Why do linen companies suck?”. Someone was actually so fed up with multiple linen companies in their market, it drove them to research why all of these linen services they have used could have been so terrible.

Before I attempt to answer this question many businesses think about the linen industry, I will say this common feeling is what founded Linen Finder (If you haven’t figured it out already; Linen Finder’s goal is to put businesses and consumers in touch with the few linen companies in North America who DON’T SUCK!).
