Emergency Buckets

Before a Disaster

Other than your Household Emergency Plan that will help you and your household plan for what to do when disaster strikes, you should have prepared:
  • A Household Emergency Checklist This list will help you prepare essential food, water, clothing and medical supplies for you and your family to cope for at least three days
  • A Getaway Kit or Emergency Bucket of essential emergency and medical items if you need to be evacuated.

Your Getaway Kit can be a large plastic bucket (why we refer to it as an Emergency Bucket) that you locate close at hand should you need to evacuate. It can of course be any other suitable storage item such as a pack that can hold your emergency preparedness items. Please refer to other pages in this section to learn about required kit or bucket contents, emergency cooking, clean air, and emergency shelter.

Whatever you decide you and your families wellbeing could depend on it, so being prepared is simple practical insurance.
