Fall: freeze prep
Before the first hard freeze, disconnect garden hoses, shut and drain outdoor faucets, and add insulated covers. Weatherstrip drafty doors and recaulk windows while it’s still warm enough for caulk to cure.

Seasonal work in Florence
Wooded lots near the bluffs mean leaves, limbs and storm debris — spring storms and fall cleanup are the busy times for haul-away here.
Winter: cold-weather problems
Omaha winters bring stretches well below freezing. Pipes on exterior walls and in unheated spaces are the ones at risk; a split hose bib or a frozen line usually shows up as a leak once it thaws.
Spring: storm cleanup
Spring thunderstorms bring wind and hail that drop limbs and scatter debris across yards. Branches and storm debris get cut down, loaded and hauled away.
Summer: moving season
Late spring through summer is peak moving season, especially at month-end when leases turn over. Humidity also swells wood doors — the ones that stick in July.
