Important Documents:

When disaster strikes, it can wipe out all evidence that you exist. If you survive, you’ll still have a hard time proving it without copies of these:

•  Insurance policies, will, contracts, deeds, stocks and bonds
•  Savings and checking account numbers
•  Credit card account numbers and companies
•  Inventory of valuable household goods, important telephone numbers
•  Passports, social security cards, immunization records
•  Family records (birth, marriage, death certificates)

Safe Storage:

Store the kit in a safe, cool, dry and convenient place known to all in your house. A plastic garbage can with a tight lid is a good solution for the basics. Be realistic. It’s not all going to fit in one place. Keep a smaller version of your Disaster Supply Kit in the trunk of your car.

•  Seal items, or groups of items, in waterproof and airtight plastic bags.
•  Change the water supply every six months so it stays fresh.
•  Rotate the food every six months.
•  Ask your doctor or pharmacist about the proper procedure for storing
    prescription medications.
•  Replace your batteries BEFORE they expire.
