Make Disaster Supply Kits
Disaster supply kits contain items most likely to be needed if staying in a specific location for an extended period of time. Supplies should be kept in water-resistant containers and stored in locations pre-determined as the safest places to be if disaster strikes.
Clatsop County recommends every household keep a 21-day supply of items in their kits for each member of the household.
The chart below offers some suggestions for items to place in kits.
- Home Kit — Keep near locations in your home where you would shelter-up, shelter-down and shelter-in-place.
- Office Kit — Keep in a place that is easy to access quickly.
- Car Kit — Keep in the trunk.
- Go Kit — Keep by the door of your home so you can grab it and go.
- Go Kit Essentials — Keep it stocked with fresh supplies.
