odd business names

I've been seeing this one truck a lot recently due to construction going on across the street. No idea what they do, but the truck is white and has black lettering on the side:
ASPLUNDR

This reminds me of a few other "legendary" local businesses:

HARDER
Mechanical Contractors

think "something that contracts" not "someone who does contract work"

PALM
Abrasive
and Tool
Company

INDUSTRIAL CRATERS
A division of O'Neill Transfer, LTD

Asplundr sounds like a mythic country in fantasy novel.

I considered that too (“the Asplundr Guard of Queen Voluptia”) but this is a family blog.

Which, of course, is located long ago, in a galaxy far, far away. (As long as we’re doing popular movies.)
