        <title>Renting a Dumpster in Omaha? Read Our Guide.</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
De-cluttering is extremely important when selling your home. Renting a dumpster is a very helpful (and cost-effective) way to get rid of stuff you don’t want anymore. A clean, decluttered home sells faster and often for more money.





Before you rent a dumpster, please make sure none of the things you are throwing away can be donated.


There are a few things to know when renting a dumpster. That’s why we just published the Complete Guide to Renting a Dumpster in Omaha.


We've updated pricing for local dumpsters for 2026.


The guide answers common questions, like




What sizes do dumpsters come in?


How long can I rent a dumpster?


What can I put in a dumpster?


What else do I need to know?


How much does a dumpster cost?




And we also provide real pricing from local companies so you don’t have to call a bunch of places to find the best price.

        <title>Celebrity Homes is Shutting Down</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
After nearly 50 years of building homes across the Omaha metro, Celebrity Homes is closing its doors. On March 6, 2026, D.R. Horton, the largest homebuilder in the United States by volume, announced it is acquiring Celebrity Homes, bringing an end to one of Omaha’s most recognizable names in new construction.


If you’re a current Celebrity homeowner, someone with an active contract, or someone who was considering a Celebrity home, you probably have a lot of questions. Here’s what we know so far.


A Little Background: Who Was Celebrity Homes?





Celebrity Homes has been a cornerstone of the Omaha homebuilding scene since 1977. For nearly five decades, the company marketed itself as “Nebraska’s Home Builder” and built a reputation on its “Yes It’s All Included” model — offering features like sprinkler systems, raised ceilings, and installed appliances at no extra charge.


At its peak, Celebrity Homes was the largest homebuilder in the Omaha area by volume, constructing 551 homes in 2023 alone. The company offered a wide range of floor plans and was the go-to option for entry-level and move-up buyers throughout West Omaha, Gretna, Bennington, and surrounding suburbs.


What Exactly Is Happening?


D.R. Horton has announced its acquisition of Celebrity Homes. According to D.R. Horton, the acquisition includes only finished lots. Celebrity Homes will finish the homes it has already started and honor existing contracts.





If You Have a Contract with Celebrity Homes


Good news: your contract should be honored. Nothing should change. You will still be working with Celebrity Homes until the home is complete. It’s best to contact your real estate agent or Celebrity Homes sales representative to confirm this.


If You Already Own a Celebrity Home


For existing Celebrity homeowners, you are probably wondering, “what happens to my warranty?&quot;


According to D.R. Horton’s announcement, warranties currently held under Celebrity Homes will remain in place as part of the acquisition. Celebrity Homes used a third-party 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty program, which covers structural defects and major systems. Because these warranties are issued through an independent third-party provider rather than Celebrity Homes itself, they are not dependent on the builder.


Beyond warranties, day-to-day homeownership in your neighborhood should be largely unaffected. HOA structures, community amenities, and completed infrastructure will remain as-is.


What Does This Mean for the Omaha Housing Market?


The short answer and long answer is… we don’t really know.


Some people think it will accelerate the building of homes and neighborhoods in the area.


That may be the case, but it doesn’t mean the home’s quality is the same. It doesn’t mean the floor plans are the same. It is a publicly traded company - its responsibility is to shareholders. They could pull out of the market at any time.


Consolidation usually leads to higher prices because there is less competition. Anyone who says this is great news but doesn’t discuss the downsides is a cheerleader, not a realist.

        <title>Spring Yard Waste Pickup Begins in Omaha</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
Omaha's free spring yard waste collection season has officially begun as of May 5, 2025.





This six-week program runs through June 13. It allows residents to dispose of excess lawn debris without additional costs beyond their regular waste services.


Important Details to Remember:




Collection period: May 5, 2025 to June 13, 2025


No stickers required: Paper yard waste bags placed outside your cart will be collected at no additional cost during this period


Stickers still required: Bundles of brush still require purchased yard waste stickers


Weight limits: Paper yard waste bags may weigh up to 40 pounds


Regular collection day: Yard waste is collected on your regular waste pickup day




During this special collection period, yard waste is taken to the Oma-Gro composting facility rather than the landfill. Your black lid garbage cart may also be used for yard waste, though materials placed in the cart will not be composted. When using your cart, FCC Environmental Services recommends placing a bag of garbage in first, as yard waste alone tends to pack tightly and may not fall out during collection.


For residents with larger amounts of yard waste, the Oma-Gro Production facility accepts self-hauled yard waste at no charge. The facility is located at 6606 S 60th Street (60th &amp; Harrison) and is open weekdays from 7 AM to 6 PM.


Remember to follow proper yard waste preparation guidelines, which include using paper bags for leaves and clippings, and ensuring branches are no larger than 2 inches in diameter and no longer than 4 feet. After June 13, stickers will again be required for yard waste collection outside your cart until the fall collection season.

        <title>Omaha Rises to the Top: The Hottest Housing Market in the U.S. for 2025</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
Omaha has officially been named the hottest housing market in the United States for 2025, according to a recent analysis by U.S. News &amp; World Report.


Why Omaha Steals the Spotlight


Omaha’s housing market has experienced a remarkable surge, with home prices climbing by an impressive 8, reaching a median price of $281,000.


This growth starkly contrasts with the national trend, where many housing markets have seen a decline.


Factors Contributing to Omaha’s Success


Job Growth and Economic Stability: Omaha is home to a diverse economy, attracting businesses and professionals, which bolsters demand for housing.


Affordable Living: While many markets grapple with skyrocketing home prices, Omaha’s housing remains accessible, making it an attractive option for families and young professionals.


Community and Quality of Life: With a vibrant culture, friendly neighborhoods, and excellent educational institutions, Omaha offers a high quality of life that appeals to both buyers and renters.


Increasing Inventory: Prospective homebuyers can look forward to a gradual improvement in housing inventory, making options more diverse and appealing.

        <title>Mortgage Rates at Lowest Point Since 2023</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
Mortgage rates have hit a low point since 2023, largely due to easing inflation and the Federal Reserve’s cautious stance on interest rate cuts.


This shift impacts you directly, whether you’re looking to buy a home or refinance an existing mortgage.





With the average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage now at about 6.5, your options are expanding. But what does this really mean for you? Let’s break it down.


Factors Contributing to the Decline in Mortgage Rates


As mortgage rates continue to drop, several key factors are at play.


Economic Conditions






Inflation: After peaking in 2023, inflation has moderated, allowing rates to stabilize.






Federal Reserve Policies: The Fed’s cautious approach to rate cuts has helped keep mortgage rates in check.






Market Sentiment






Housing Affordability: High prices and low inventory have slowed demand, putting downward pressure on rates.






Economic Uncertainty: Concerns over trade policies and inflation expectations add volatility, affecting how lenders set rates.






All these factors have combined to create lower rates.


What Does This Mean For Home Buyers?


Understanding the current decline in mortgage rates opens up new possibilities for home buyers.


Lower Monthly Payments With the average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage at 6.5, you can expect lower monthly payments compared to previous highs. This means more budget flexibility and potentially allows you to qualify for NIFA loans designed specifically for first-time buyers.


Increased Buying Power Lower rates also increase your buying power. You might afford a larger home or a better neighborhood without breaking the bank.


Spring Buying Season As we enter the spring buying season, more homes hit the market. This timing could help you find better deals.


No More Renting If you’re currently renting, this might be the perfect time to consider buying instead. Lower rates make homeownership more accessible than before. If you are thinking about buying a home check out the home buying process.


Take advantage of these favorable conditions


What Does This Mean For Homeowners?


Even if you don’t plan on selling, homeowners can benefit significantly from the recent decline in mortgage rates.


Lower rates mean you could reduce your monthly payments. For example, if you have a mortgage at 7 and refinance to 6.5, that lowers your payment considerably.


This might be a great time to tap into your home equity. With lower rates, equity loans become more affordable, allowing you to fund renovations or pay off high-interest debt.


Here’s a quick breakdown of benefits:




Monthly Savings: Lower your payments by refinancing.


Equity Access: Use your home’s value to get better loan terms.


Long-Term Stability: Lock in a lower rate for financial peace.




We have preferred lenders in Omaha that can simplify the refinancing process, ensuring you make informed decisions.


Now’s the time to explore your options

Tidal Wave Auto Spa


Tidal Wave Auto Spa’s roots stem all the way back to the year 1999 when Scott and Hope Blackstock decided to add a car wash to their Thomaston, Georgia-based auto service center. We started with a simple, 5-bay self-service wand wash. Soon, we expanded the wash with a newly designed, specialty mud bay, which proved to be a big hit with ATV and ORV enthusiasts.





2004 was a magical year Tidal Wave opened its very first express car wash and revolutionized the car wash industry. This first express wash, which ultimately became Tidal Wave’s signature model, was located in metro Atlanta. Its success with the public attracted visits from industry insiders from across the country. Tidal Wave’s founders had traveled across the southeast researching ways to improve the industry. Our search helped change the industry, and more importantly, gave our customers a superior car wash experience and a better, cleaner product out of the wash tunnel.

        <title>Ice Skating Opens in Downtown Omaha</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
The new ice skating rink in downtown Omaha is a delightful addition to the city's winter attractions.





The RiverFront’s Skate Ribbon is in Heartland of America Park. It opened just a few months ago for roller skating and rollerblading.


But last week it was transformed into a winter wonderland, offering residents and visitors a unique ice skating experience.


The best part. It's free.


Skate rentals are available. And you may need to plan ahead. There are 50 slots per half hour. Online reservations are available, but you can also walk up to see if there are openings.







The opening of the rink is perfectly timed for the holiday season, providing a festive and fun outdoor activity for families, couples, and individuals of all ages.


And the rink's location in downtown Omaha makes it an ideal spot for those looking to combine their skating adventure with other activities.


Take a short walk to the Gene Leahy Mall and enjoy the Holiday Lights Festival. Or head over to the Old Market for a bite to eat.
