Here are some more information for Trunk Kit:
Step 1 - Make sure you have saved 1 milk jug and 3 (2-liter) bottles per person. Wash them all out with soap and let dry.
Step 2 - Multiply the number of kits you want by the items listed in the shopping list (see below or for a printable worksheet visit our blog) and purchase the food items from Walmart or your neighborhood grocery store.
Step 3 - Purchase a wing stove and fuel pellets from an emergency preparedness store such as Emergency Essentials or if one isn't available in your area follow the links on our blog to order online. Only one stove is NECESSARY per family, but they are pretty cheap so if you'd like to have one per kit that is fine too. It will make it much more convenient in a true emergency.
Step 4 - Cut straight down the middle of a milk jug diagonal from the handle. Go about 1/3 of the way down. At the bottom of that cut, make a horizontal slice coming from each side but leave about 2 inches of the jug intact. This should make a sort hatch that you can pull open and insert the items in. Watch the video on our blog if you are having trouble visualizing how to do this.
Step 5 - Place the necessary items into each milk jug according to the contents list. Put the Tang and cocoa servings into small zip-lock bags (1/4 c. per serving). If you have extra food left over, stick it in as space permits. Tape the milk jug up. Tape the contents list (see below) to the outside of the jug and record today's date and the family member who will use that kit. VOILA!
Step 6 - Fill your 2 liter bottles with water and store all of the items in an easily accessible place (your car trunk is the ideal place if you have room). Check out our Step 2: Water page for more information on how to properly store the water.

Disaster Survival Kits Can Save Lives
No one knows when disaster may strike, but getting prepared beforehand will help you survive. No matter whether it is natural disaster in a local area, like an earthquake or hurricane, or man made disaster, terrorist attack and fire, you require having disaster survival kits with proper emergency supplies. The disasters will force you vacate your neighborhood, place of work or school or will detain you to your house.
Having the right first-aid kits, survival kits, and emergency supplies ahead of time is just like having spare tire in a trunk of the car: You think not to have the flat tire, but it is good to know that the spare tire is there, ready for the use to keep you going. The emergency preparedness is necessary now.
What is the disaster survival kit?
Disaster survival kits are one type of kit that you and your family fill with necessities for the survival in an event of disaster and these include food, water, clothing, first aid supplies, bedding and tools and some emergency supplies.
Why prepare for a disaster?
The hope of something “disastrous” taking place will scare us all. However, reality is, there is the chance that all of us can be involved in a disaster and emergency. The services like water, gas, electric, and telephones can be cut off. In an event of large disaster, the emergency staff will be very busy helping people in need of the immediate medical and rescue attention, and will not assist you.
Events of 11th September, Hurricane Katrina, Mumbai terrorist attack in India as well as shocking Tsunami in Indonesia as well as surrounding regions have affected us emotionally, physically, and morally. Thus, preparation for all kinds of disasters should be the fact of life. So why leave it on fate and take a chance that you and your loved ones will suffer unnecessarily during and after the disaster?
The emergency preparedness experts have designed the disaster survival kits that have the most reliable disaster food, water, communication, and shelter, lighting, as well as sanitation supplies accessible so they are prepared when and where you require those.
Choose an easy method to keep the items stored and ready while you need it is to divide between two or more easy to carry containers, like camping backpack or duffel bag. Place canned foods in dry place where the temperature is very cool.

What should I put in my trunk for regular use?
I already have an emergency kit with first aid and car repair supplies, but does anyone have ideas for what to put in a more social box, stuff that's good to have on you all the time... ex: paper, pens, cell charger, emergency money. Ideas?
I always put an extra can of pepper spray because you never know when will you need it.
