Emergency Supplies List
Living in California for most of life, earthquakes are a part of normal life. There’s talk about “the big one” and when the weather changes people start questioning if we’re going to be hit with another. In an effort to be more prepared, I created an emergency supplies list. This checklist has the bases covered with things you need to get done to be prepared.
Need to Know
These are things to discuss with your family members:
- Family meet up location
- Evacuation plan
Basic Survival Supplies
Things you need to have on hand for the whole family:
- Water 3-5 gallons, stored
- Flashlight for each family member
- Battery powered radio
- Important papers/documents
- Sleeping bag per person
- poncho
- 1 full outfit for each family member
- extra batteries
- 72 hour supply of food
- candles/headlamp
- pocket knife
- shovel
- hachet/axe
- sewing kit
- duct tape
- cash –
Sanitation
You don’t want to be without these during an emergency:
- Toilet paper + tissues – here’s how to calculate how much you need
- Comb/brush
- Toothbrush/toothpaste
- Hand sanitizer + soap
- First Aid Kit – store with your medicine organizer
- Trash bags
Extras
Some of these are necessities, some are luxury items:
- Sunscreen
- Pet food/supplies
- Camping gear
- Kids go kit

Hi! These are awesome! I have something similar that I have been working on for 3 years now. :D For your 72 hour food supply you may want to put a date that it expires in your binder so you can rotate it through your pantry.
Also, would you be willing to share your font? It would be perfect for something I’m working on right now!
Thanks for the great post, it reminded me I need to update this portion of my family binder.

This is such a great idea. I really need to get us “organized” in this department… we always let the TP supply dwindle down to one roll, and I would hate to run out of that *wink*
Mique says
Ha! Yeah, I would hate to run out too Melissa. ;)
