General Linen Service knows that uniforms do more than make people look good. They keep people safe, help you meet health codes, and provide reliable gear that shows up when you need it. That’s why we don’t offer one-size-fits-all programs. Instead, we build rental programs around what your specific industry actually requires.
Do you run a manufacturing plant? We understand the safety standards you must meet. Do you manage a healthcare facility? We know infection control requirements. Do you operate a restaurant? We see how quickly uniforms go from clean to disaster during a busy shift.
Because we operate locally and independently, we can spend time learning how your business works. Our team visits your location, talks to your people, and figures out what kind of program makes sense for your operation. You get professional laundering, quality inventory management, and service from people who know your name, not a call center somewhere across the country.
Healthcare Uniform Programs
Healthcare environments demand strict sanitation and consistent reliability. That is why General Linen Service holds a Hygienically Clean Certification for all garments provided to medical facilities. Our healthcare uniform program supports hospitals, clinics, and caregivers with a wide range of garments, including:
- Lab coats
- Scrubs
- Patient gowns
- Barrier coats
We pick up, launder, and deliver uniforms each week so your staff always has clean, ready-to-wear garments. Our team inspects every item during the laundry process and completes repairs or replacements as needed, often before your team reports a problem.
Food Service & Hospitality Uniform Programs
From head chefs to waitstaff, your employees help shape the guest experience. A clean, professional appearance reinforces customer confidence and supports a smooth dining experience.
Our foodservice and hospitality uniform program includes a broad selection of garments available in various colors, styles, and sizes, including:
- Chef coats
- Server shirts
- Kitchen aprons
- Host and maître d’ uniforms
We manage laundering and garment upkeep, so you do not have to. Our attention to detail ensures your uniforms look as polished as your service.
Industrial and Manufacturing Uniform Programs
Manufacturing uniform programs are built for durability and function. Whether your team operates heavy machinery, assembles products, or works in shipping, we supply workwear that protects and performs.
We serve employees across:
- Industrial floors
- Manufacturing plants
- Loading docks
- Maintenance departments
Our industrial workwear options include heavy-duty garments like blue jeans and protective outerwear. Each item goes through a professional laundering process and is tracked using RFID chips to ensure every piece is returned to your team on time.
Corporate Uniform Programs
Your team represents your brand, whether on a job site, in a showroom, or at the front desk. We supply custom-branded apparel that reflects your business identity in a polished, consistent way. Our corporate uniform program includes:
- Polo shirts
- Button-up shirts
- Jackets and branded outerwear
What’s Included in a Uniform Rental Program?
We tailor each rental program to match your staff size and schedule. While every business is different, most programs follow a weekly cycle and include:
- 11 Sets of Uniforms per Employee: One to wear, five for the upcoming week, and five in rotation for laundering.
- Weekly Pickup and Delivery: We pick up soiled garments and return them fully cleaned the following week.
- Consistent Repairs and Replacements: Garments are inspected for damage and wear, with 90% of repairs caught and completed before staff ever need to report them.
- RFID Tracking for Accurate Deliveries: Every garment is equipped with an RFID chip, allowing us to verify its presence, status, and proper return. This helps us guarantee complete and correct deliveries every time.
Direct Purchase Uniform Program
Some companies prefer to manage their uniforms in-house. For those businesses, we offer a direct purchase program. Every item we provide in our rental service is also available for purchase. Customers can choose:
- Styles and quantities
- Size ranges
- Colors
- Logo and name customization
This option offers greater control while still benefiting from General Linen’s quality garment options.
Why Use a Uniform Rental Program?
A well-structured uniform program does more than keep employees dressed. It provides consistency, safety, and boosts your brand image. Key benefits include:
- Improved Professionalism: Uniforms create a cohesive appearance and boost team morale.
- Safety Support: Garments designed for specific roles help protect workers.
- Security Awareness: Uniforms help staff recognize authorized personnel and distinguish between authorized and unauthorized individuals.
- Brand Visibility: Uniformed employees serve as walking advertisements, and 80% of the public view them positively.
