Linen and Uniform Inventory Flexibility with Rental Services by Century Linen

linen rental service

No matter the business you’re in — medical, hospitality, or food service — there is one thing shared by all: linen inventory needs eventually change. Hiring a linen rental service like Century Linen is the perfect solution to handle those changing needs. To learn the inventory benefits of linen rental over ownership, keep reading!

Downfalls of Linen Ownership

On its surface, ownership seems to be the most cost-effective and convenient way to stock linens and uniforms. After all, ownership means control, and control means finding the most cost-effective way to get things done. Unfortunately, controlling the linen of a company, even a small one, is a job rife with complication and expenses.

 Here are just some of them: 

  • Amount to purchase
  • When to wash
  • Where to store
  • Who will wash? 
  • Limited options
  • Costs
    • Initial purchase
    • Management 
    • Maintenance 
      • Clothes / Machinery
    • Chemicals

Even if your linen and uniform laundry is outsourced to a professional launderer, they can only do half of what’s required of professional linen management. There’s still monitoring, management, storage, washing logistics, and lack of variety to consider. A quality linen and uniform rental service like Century Linen has the answers to these problems. 

A Linen and Uniform Service Has Supply, Variety, and Flexibility 

Unlike linen and uniforms that are owned, rented linen and uniforms are not bound by any of the restrictions of ownership. Because we own the linens and uniforms, maintaining them, managing them, and upgrading is our responsibility. All you have to do is tell us what you want. 

Century Linen Has the Supply You Need

Because our job is to supply your business with the materials it needs, we have an abundance of those materials. Whether you’re dressing people, tables, or beds, Century Linen has the linens and uniforms you need and then some. 

Century Has the Variety and Flexibility You Need

If you own your linens and want to embrace the holiday season, that means you either have to rent or buy them. Not only would this temporary change be expensive, but it would also be cumbersome. Where will you store those linens you’re not using? Who will you get these linens from? What will you do if the linen quality isn’t where it needs to be? 

A short-term linen rental agency has little incentive to make you happy. Getting the most out of that contract is the goal, as you won’t be around for very long. That means higher prices for lower quality.   

A long-term partner like Century Linen, on the other hand, has every incentive to keep you satisfied. That means adjusting your supply with your wants, with the same quality you’re used to. And we’re happy to do it! 

Century Linen is Your Flexible Linen Service Partner

If you’re stuck in a frustrating loop of overbearing linen management and complex seasonal adjustments, put those frustrations behind you. Imagine your future free of everything that linen management demands. Imagine recapturing your time and money spent on linen management. That reality can be yours right now.
