Step 1
Purchase a pre-assembled kit from Survival Warehouse (see Resources below). Their products range from a simple one-day kit to more elaborate kits designed specifically for classrooms, commuters or those who think they may be evacuated. They include fanny packs as well as pre-packed backpacks.

Step 2
Consider Nitro-Pak.com (see Resources below). They have a vast selection of emergency food as well as other equipment you might need in an emergency, such as an oven and a kit that creates a makeshift kitchen. They also guarantee price-matching on any item you purchase to create your emergency food supply.

Step 3
Buy at Pleasant Hill Grain (see Resources below). They specialize in dehydrated food for emergency use and focus much of their products as being appropriate to an LDS (Latter-Day Saints) food storage plan. As a result, their kits provide more food than the amount needed to satisfy FEMA's 72-hour time frame. The smallest is a three-month supply for a family of four.

Step 4
Consider BePrepared.com (see Resources below). It features a 72-hour pack of essential items. Its product, The Trekker™ IV kit, provides a family with a full set of preparation for emergencies. It includes lights, first aid and hygiene supplies and water. It also provides the basic foodstuffs a family needs for a 72-hour period as well as equipment for communication and shelter.
