"Requested more money"

Quoted same price twice
Paid money which was taken from account straight away.
Received telephone call same day to say they had made mistake with the price - it was now considerably more.
To make matters worse it would take 3-5 days to receive refund,
Disgusted can take money from account straight away, but can take upto working week for refund

"So incredibly rude"

So incredibly rude, ignored emails, didn't call back, eventually I called them back again and their operator Sean O Reilly hung up on me.

"The bad reviews are for a firm claiming…"

The bad reviews are for a firm claiming to be Martins. Call the correct number 01904 412476 you get to the right place and will get a better service. An 8yd skip cost me 288

"Avoid"

Skip didn't arrive and didn't contact me to let me know, when I called to get a refund, they agreed to it but I never received my money back. So to sum it up, I lost money on paying my builder who had organised to be there that day and lost money for the skip.

"Shambles of a company"

I ordered a skip this morning over the phone, was not given a price before paying (my fault for not asking) but was absolutely shocked that your “cheap skip hire” and “best price guaranteed” skip hire turned out to be £438 for an 8 yarder!! Then went onto your online booking form and it was £392- so either way you’re not cheap and by the looks of it on a bit of a con.
Speedy skips is one of the most expensive around and even they are £70 cheaper than your online price!

"Excellent service thank you"

Excellent service thank you. Arrived on time and was collected the same day I called them to say the job was complete. After reading bad reviews I really was concerned but they deserve this review as I couldn’t fault them.

"If I could give a minus 1 star I would…"

If I could give a minus 1 star I would ! Ordered a skip 3 days in advance, didn't turn up and no phone call ! Then the skip came a week later. Finished with the skip, called for it to be collected, no collection ! Keep saying they'll collect it in 5 days, no collection. Had this skip for over 3 weeks on my drive. What a load of sh.t martins skip hire is. People, don't get a skip from these. I should of read the reviews first as there's more 1 stars then any thing else !

"I ordered a skip from this company on the 5th of May 2023"

I ordered a skip from this company on the 5th of May for delivery for the 11th of May. I was told at the time of ordering delivery would be in the morning. I am writing this review on the 11th of May and the time is now 14.36, the reason I am writing this now is because I have just read the shocking reviews on this company and I have this sinking feeling, I have wrong this company twice now and each time to be told the reason they are late is because there is road closures, which is a really poor excuse but since reading the reviews I realise they are probably not coming from Southport with my skip even though I rang a Southport for the booking. So I am going to ring now for the third time to cancel my booking and thank them for wasting my time. I think I read 2 positive reviews so I would suggest they were the lucky ones. I would not waste your time and energy on this company.

"This guys are a joke or a nightmare"

This guys are a joke or a nightmare. Order a skip calling them, offered a price, on their website different and cheaper price. For many other reasons call them on the same day again to cancel my order. Left a voicemail and sent 1 email. Was a Saturday. Called them again on Monday just to make sure that they received my cancellation. So far no one email on text of confirmation. Nothing. They said that everything was cancelled and I will get my refund in 2/3 days. No money for one week, several email and call, always the same answer. The top was after 10 days they changed the answer, we cannot refund you because you have the skip outside your house. Of course I did not. The funny stuff is that they delivered the skip after 5 days to another house in the village. Finally after 13 days I received my refund. Probably my worst commercial experience so far!

"Absolute nightmare company"

To start with I was like wow, fantastic, the skip came the very next day of me ordering it. And then it all went down hill from there. I had to call the company up like 10 times and each time they said yes the skip will be collected this week. The skip was left outside my house for over 2 months. And when they did decide to pick the skip up, they dropped a mattress out and a load of other things too and decided to not put them back into the skip. So I spent £180 on a skip and they didn't even take everything I put into it 😂. Never ever again. Read all the reviews on this company. 90% of them have had a horrendous experience with these people. I definitely do not recommend them, go for anyone but these!
