Hurricanes can be devastating if you aren’t prepared. Hurricane kits include waterproof or water-resistant supplies so that you have everything you need after a hurricane. With winds going at least 74 mph and rain hailing down, nothing is completely safe from the devastation. We all saw the horrible aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, and the decimation of an entire city, New Orleans. How would you survive?

An emergency is most likely to happen while you’re away from home and in your car. Also, in the case of an accident or road trip, these types of supplies should always be kept for an emergency. They all contain some form of a first aid kit, road side assistance help, and some offer a little more.

Earthquakes are naturally occurring disasters, when different tectonic plates shift in movement against one another. Where two crusts meet is called a fault-line, and there are several types, such as subduction (which involves an oceanic plate), thrust, slip, oblique, and more. They are graded in a 0.1-10.0 magnitude, and the largest one recorded since 1900 was a 9.5 in Chile in 1977. On March 3, 2011, Japan suffered a 9.0 magnitude earthquake and suffered untold damage.
Owning a kit like the ones below is a great way to attempt being prepared, but no one is ever truly prepared for a disaster. They all include some form of food or water, first aid kit, and more, and vary in sizes for 1-4 person sizes. Each comes in a bag of some sort for easy transport.
