Each week, uniform rental companies provide employees with up to five changes
of work clothes and pick up a set of uniforms from the previous week for
cleaning.
These services generally require a minimum order of garments to be delivered
each week. Services also typically require a minimum two-year commitment, with
three- and four-year terms becoming quite common.
Generally, it will be cheaper for a uniform rental firm to handle your
account if you are located nearby or along a route already being served. In
addition, it can be more cost effective to work with a firm that already
supplies the same garments to other firms. That way, the rental service can
better manage their inventory and can obtain better pricing from uniform
manufacturers.
