The Guardian 3 Person Essential Survival Kit is an evacuation kit for a household of three, whether that means a parent with two kids or three adults. When the order comes to leave, one rolling bag goes out the door and into the car carrying 36 water pouches, three 3,600-calorie food bars and three deluxe hygiene kits.
Choose the rolling bag or dry bag at 18 lb, or keep the 5-gallon bucket with toilet seat lid at home.
Why it works:
- Pull it to the car instead of lifting it: Getting out fast is simpler when the kit rolls. At 23" L x 13" W x 11" H, the rolling bag weighs 18 lb, the same as the dry bag.
- Water on the move: Thirty-six 4 oz water pouches travel with you, three 1-liter hydration bags with straw carry what you collect, and 30 water purification tablets (each purifies 1 liter) treat water you find along the way. Three 3,600-calorie food bars round out the rations; the food and water have a 5-year shelf life and are meant to provide nutrition for 72 hours.
- Three people stay clean away from home: A night at a relative's or a shelter is easier when everyone can wash up. Every carrier holds 3 deluxe hygiene kits along with shampoo and conditioner, deodorant gel, a comb and a toothbrush, plus 9 wet wipes, 9 disposable face masks and 3 biohazard waste bags.
- Weather cover for all three: Rain or cold on the way out is covered for each person: 3 emergency blankets, 3 emergency ponchos and 3 hand/body warmers.
- Shared gear for the drive: One set of tools serves the group: an AM/FM radio (batteries included), a hand rechargeable flashlight (never needs batteries), a 44-piece first aid kit, a 5-in-1 emergency whistle, a multi-function pocket knife and a notepad and pencil.
Who it's built for:
For a household of three, it is the single bag to grab when you are told to leave, with food, water, hygiene and warmth for each person. For agencies and field teams, it stages supplies for a three-person crew in one carrier, and the rolling bag pulls straight to a vehicle.
