In our Survival Kits Page you will find a store that has everything you need.
Don't be surprised! you are about to see products and prices they are all relevant to keeping you and your love ones alive when and if the time comes to evacuate.
I have placed items in separate catagories to highlight the difference between a basic survival kit and an advanced.
Survival Kits
A basic survival kit should be enough to keep you going for 1-2 days,
An advanced survival kit can sustain you from 3-5 days and maybe longer if you don't completely exhaust your supplies.
The difference between these two kits is the amount of additional contents. I personally brought a large survival kit that could sustain 4 people and I also added to it ie additional first aid items, baby food, dried food or commonly known as rehydrated rations (the same as what the army issues to soldiers) baby formula etc.
You can pretty much build your kit as much or as little pending on how you percieve its importance. Bear in mind that:
- some items can be heavy and this has to be taken into consideration as you might be forced to walk great distances if road blocks or flooding will prevent conventional means of travel.
- you or someone who is in your care might be injured and you may not be able to carry everything
- if you feel you need a particular item and it seems to look heavy, look for a similiar item that is smaller
