The abandoned toddler was found by a man who lives at the Alpine Village Apartments in La Vista last night.
The neighbor had heard what he thought was an animal and looked inside the dumpster to find the youngster inside - wearing nothing but a soiled diaper.
Paramedics checked the little boy out, who was crying but not hurt, before taking him to the Children's Hospital and Medical Centre in Omaha.
The man who found the boy said he 'couldn't believe' what he was seeing, KETV.comreported.
He explained he was in the parking lot near 86th Street and Park Boulevard cleaning his car when he heard noises coming from the dumpster.
The man, who did not want to be named, said: 'Very disturbing, very upsetting and I couldn't believe what I saw.'
He added: 'I went and looked on the inside the dumpster and I seen a little hand with an empty water bottle moving.'
Last night, police quickly released the boy's picture and appealed for information.
