DISTRICT ON WAY UP
Reller has owned and operated American Personal Storage,
a self-storage and mini-warehouse business at 1849 SW South
Macedo Blvd., since 1986. The business, still in its original
location, has grown remarkably over the years.
“I started very small, with about 8,000 square feet,” he said.
“Now I’m at about 70,000.”
In another sign of an improving economy, a 22,000-squarefoot
facility, Expert Shutters, is under construction and can be
seen from the turnpike.
“Business is getting busier and that’s a good thing,” Reller
said. “We’re definitely on the upswing.”
