How long will it take to start a uniform rental service with Park Avenue?

We work closely with our customers to ensure that uniform rental starts on the agreed day. We take full responsibility for meeting these deadlines. If you require ‘standard’ garments that can be purchased off the shelf, set up time is usually 1-2 weeks. For non-standard garments that are manufactured to your requirements, set up time may be 4-8 weeks.

How often do you invoice for your services?

Our prices are based on a 52 week billing period and generally invoices are generated weekly. However monthly invoicing is also available upon request. We pride ourselves on our simple, easy to understand invoices. Some of our competitors’ invoices are so complex that their customers don’t even understand what they are paying for!

What happens when my employees are on holidays?

Our rental agreement is for a 52-week billing period. Uniforms will be delivered as normal so that they are available when your employee returns from holiday. In the case of a plant shutdown the only difference to the above is that the soiled laundry will be picked up just prior to the commencement of the shutdown and if we can’t deliver during the shutdown period, the garments will be delivered on the first delivery cycle after start-up.

What makes Park Avenue different from the rest?

Our commitment to service and innovation is one of our key differences, along with an understanding that each of your employees is our individual customer and that our ability to keep them happy is a direct reflection of our service. We are also flexible in meeting your individual needs.

What sort of flexibility do you offer?

Depending on your requirements we can offer daily, every second day, twice weekly, weekly, fortnightly or monthly servicing. In fact, we are able to call as frequently as you wish. We even have customers on an eight weekly service cycle. Our system automatically ensures we call on the right day, every time. All our deliveries are accompanied by a comprehensive delivery docket listing of all of the items returned that day. We also offer flexibility in outfitting your staff. We are happy to rent or lease any style of garments you require, with your name embroidered directly onto the garment if you so desire.

Will you save my business money?

We are experts in working with our customers to ensure they are paying only for exactly what they need. Our on-going reporting system allows our customers to monitor their usage and make savings.

What happens when an employee leaves?

Just let us know and we can stop the supply of rental garments for an employee who has left. Unless we are told we do not know, so it is important to notify us.
