Our history began in 1952 in Hackensack, NJ. One man’s vision of owning a business and providing a living for his family has grown into a company which is now serving over 2,500 business establishments. Today Yankee Linen is still managed and run by descendants of the original owner.

One truck became twenty, serving the tri-state area. In 1952, Yankee's founder delivered and served every customer for years by himself. He was later joined by his two sons in 1978, and in 1987 the company moved to a new facility in the Riverside section of Paterson where they are located today.

Having established a great reputation for quality service the business continued to grow and a third generation has entered into management. We continue to look for ways to improve on our commitment to quality service and we are looking forward to serving you in the near future.
