OUR STORY

Get to know how our family business started five decades ago!

In 1966, Lester Sorsby and his wife Wanda founded Aztec Rental Center. They ran a mom and pop style store, renting everything from medical equipment, wedding décor, lawnmowers, and small motor boats, to large construction equipment. Their children Lester Jr., Carol and Rick were all involved in the family company. Over the years, as they streamlined the store to focus primarily on home and commercial construction equipment, less attention was paid to the non construction rental items. The oldest son Lester Jr. realizing the growing market for party rentals, decided to branch off and started Aztec Party Handlers in 1983. With his long time friend, Penne Hamblin, helping to manage the store, the new business took off and was an immediate success. Soon both companies were flourishing. The family participation grew as did the success of the company, and before long, Lester and Wanda’s son-in-law Allen Nedd had joined the company.
