ABOUT US
Welcome To Martlands
Based in Burscough, Lancashire, a few miles to the north of Ormskirk, Martlands is a family owned business which has been trading for over 100 years. The business was started around the turn of the 20th century by William Martland who was contracted by the British Military at Lathom Remount for the slaughter of horses not fit enough to go to war. From these origins, we have expanded over the years into the business you can see now.

We have been using Martlands for about 8 years now and have never had one problem. I hear of other stories of skips not turning up till late or even at all, this hasn’t happened once with Martlands. All the staff from the drivers to the girls in the office are more than helpful. I will continue to use Martlands and can’t recommend them enough. Thanks Guys.

Southport Carpet Centre have been using Martlands for skip hire at many sites across the Northwest for the last fifteen years… They are always thorough, organised, on time and most importantly always give a better price than competitors, I would not hesitate to recommend them to any Company that produces waste of a reasonable volume in its day to day business.

Managing Director
Mook gardens stopped using skips years ago through being constantly let down by local firms. Since using Martlands they’ve been on time, honest and trustworthy. We use them now and recommend them to our peers and customers.

Casualty slaughter fallen stock collection sits directly on that line, and getting the decision wrong costs either the value of the carcass or a serious […]
