When a hurricane takes out the power and the water and you are riding it out at home, the Guardian Hurricane Emergency Bucket Kit keeps hurricane supplies for one or two people in a single 5-gallon bucket. Its lid is a toilet seat for when the plumbing stops working.
A hand crank NOAA weather radio with a phone charger keeps you on the forecast, an LED lantern lights the room, and a metal hatchet, nails, rope and duct tape are ready for the morning after. Hand-assembled in the USA.
Why it works:
- A toilet when the plumbing fails: the 5-gallon bucket comes with a toilet seat lid, and 18 wet wipes, 4 pocket tissues and a deluxe hygiene kit are packed inside.
- The forecast and a charged phone: a 4-in-1 dynamo flashlight with a hand crank NOAA weather radio, a siren and a phone charger, plus an emergency LED lantern, a candle and a bright stick.
- Tools for the morning after: a metal hatchet, a pack of nails, 50 feet of nylon rope, duct tape, a multi-function pocket knife, rubber-palm work gloves and safety goggles.
- Water and food for the first day: 24 x 4 oz water pouches and 2 x 3,600-calorie food bars meant to provide adequate nutrition for one day without other supplies, plus 20 purification tablets, 2 hydration bags and a flat fold 2 gallon water carrier.
- Warmth and a way to be seen: 2 emergency sleeping bags, 2 hooded ponchos, a 2-person tube tent, 2 body warmers and a bright orange help flag.
Who it's built for:
For coastal households of one or two, it is a hurricane kit packed in the bucket you will use at home. For property managers and agencies, it is a storm-season kit to stage at each site.
