Commercial Cleaning
& Linen in Carlton

Carlton doesn't need a growth story — Lygon Street's Italian food strip and the University of Melbourne precinct have anchored the suburb for generations, and that established, unhurried character is exactly why the businesses here need a cleaning and linen supplier who won't disrupt decades of routine.

Common questions

Frequently asked

Do you cover Lygon Street and the university precinct?

Yes — all of Carlton 3053, including Lygon Street, Nicholson Street, Rathdowne Street and the streets around the University of Melbourne.

How fast can you respond to a Carlton business?

We're based in Northcote, roughly 15-20 minutes away depending on traffic.

Do you supply towels/linen, or launder what we already own?

Both options are available. We can launder stock you already own, or supply and rotate a fresh towel pool ourselves — let us know which you'd prefer and we'll price accordingly.

Is there a minimum contract length for Carlton businesses?

No 12-month lock-in required. We'll agree a schedule matching your volume and review it as your business changes.

What does "thermally cleaned" mean for our linen?

All linen and towels are washed at 65°C or above for a sustained period — with an industrial sanitation treatment plus a backup process that kills 99% of pathogens including bacteria and viruses, certified to AS/NZS 4146.

What's your guarantee?

If a checklist item on a clean or linen load wasn't completed to standard, tell us within 48 hours with photos and we'll redo that item at no charge. Still not right? We'll credit that item of the visit in full.
