Home Fires
One of the most important reasons to have an Emergency Survival Kit / Bug Out Bag is to prepare for home fires. Why? Because in only a matter of minutes a small flame can turn into a raging house fire, and you and your family may only have seconds to escape.
You wouldn't have time to grab anything that wasn't already prepared near an exit.
Home fires, more than any other thing we prepare for (other than a tornado) strike the fastest and pose the most significant threat us.
Choosing an Emergency Bag
When prepping for emergencies, and possible evacuation scenarios, many different variables must be considered. Different situations have different needs. For example, you may not always be at home when one arises.
For that reason we have developed the modular BOBB Five-Part Emergency System which helps you to keep the gear where you will need it most, and when you put it all together gives you the full kit.
Deciding what goes into your emergency kit(s) can be a little overwhelming at first.
