Order Basic Emergency Kit 6557

Your kits are a foundational part of your preparedness. What you have in your kit, along with your plan and skills, is what you will have to survive in the event of an emergency. 

Each person should have a series of kits taylor-made for them. Each kit will contain supplies that the owner is familiar with and knows how to use and care for.

Check out the kits and suggested items by dowloading the Go Kits Checklist at the bottom of this page and start building your kit inventory. If you don't have one, we recommend starting with a Go-Kit followed by your Grab-n-Go Binder and your Evac Box. If you have pets, build their kit with your Go-Kit. Your Bug Out Bag, Car Kit, Shelter In Place and 2 Weeks Ready kits are larger and will require more time to assemble. 

Need help with kits? We can help!

If you just need to get a kit and don't have the time to build it yourself, order a 1 or 2 person 3-Day Go-Kit! Rogue Valley Emergency Management has partnered with Friends of Search and Rescue to provide an affordable way for residents to get a kit without having to build one. The kits are sold at or near cost. To order, download the order form below, or call Josephine County Emergency Management at 541-474-5308.
