InPress... Equipment rental

This week we all decided to research separate areas and group together and discuss what we found on Friday.
Francesca is researching different kinds of promotions and what it will cost, Kirsty is looking at business loans and car rental/ insurance, Niall is looking into studio rental and I am researching rental costs of Macs, printers and so on.

The first site I have found is Rent IT. They do next day delivery to most parts of the UK and provide most of the equipment that we need for a reasonable price. They also provide a repair service for quite a hefty price, but also allow you to find your own maintenance as long as they are informed.

Here are the best deals I found on the site, although it may be better to negotiate a quote as they do offer discounts for longer leases.

6 months:    £97.37/pm
1 year:         £70.57/pm

The next is HiRental, which is based in Leeds. This could be convenient, although it is more expensive than Rent IT and doesn't have all of the equipment that we need.

6 months:    £268.17/pm excluding VAT
