Theres a bloke who drinks round the Baxenden pubs called Martin ( Well known in all of them) who does this for a living. I'd bet for a couple of pints he'd spill all you want.

Unfortunately he seems to do the rounds of all the pubs in turn so I'm not sure which is his current place of choice. I seem to recall his place of work is somewhere near Ossy Mills.
