they are about £600 a week each but if you have them a month you would probably get a cheaper rate.

That's a really good price... does it include insurance and delivery/collection as I have found that they don't often include this in their quotes and it can be quite hefty?
The cheapest I have found including insurance and delivery/collection is about £450 per week plus VAT of course.
