Toilet paper looks like the most ordinary purchase on your list. It’s also one of the line items where businesses overpay the most without noticing.
Jumbo: fewer changes, fewer outages
One jumbo roll holds the equivalent of 8 to 12 standard rolls. Your staff swaps rolls a few times a week instead of several times a day, and dispensers almost never run dry at peak hours.
Standard: flexibility and comfort
In low-traffic offices or upscale spaces, a standard 2-ply roll offers better perceived comfort and needs no special dispenser. It does cost more per metre.
Count metres, not rolls
Always compare the price per metre of paper. A $4 jumbo holding 600 metres easily beats a pack of standard rolls at $0.80 for 35 metres. Over a year, for an average facility, the gap adds up to hundreds of dollars.
Our recommendation
Public, high-traffic washrooms: jumbo, no hesitation. Private offices and upscale hospitality: standard 2-ply. In both cases, buy by the case at wholesale pricing.
