Emergency Preparedness: How Self Storage Could be Your Saving Grace

When it comes to natural disasters, preparation time can be incredibly limited. For hurricanes, tornadoes, and earthquakes, there’s often little warning before action is required whether that is evacuating or taking cover. By organizing your essential documents, photo albums, and valuables in a single, easily accessible place, you give yourself more time to focus on getting your family, pets, and home ready for impact. Using a self-storage unit for these crucial items ensures they stay safe, organized, and ready for retrieval when you need them most.

At-Home Emergency Kits

It is very important to have an emergency backpack in the home that is easy to access and full of essentials. From flashlights and batteries, to water and canned food, to first aid kits and blankets, your emergency backpack should have the essentials to get you through a few nights without power or if you are stuck on the road for a few hours. Consider a change of clothes and shoes as well. Having essentials easily accessible can make it much faster to evacuate if there is a natural disaster.

Consider preparing emergency backpacks for each family member at home as well. These bags can include essentials like water, non-perishable food, first-aid supplies, flashlights, batteries, extra clothes, and copies of your vital documents. This way, your family is prepared to leave quickly, and your essential belongings are secure in storage. By staying organized, you can evacuate faster and reduce the stress of emergency situations.
