grab n' go box

If you were suddenly faced with an emergency and you needed to evacuate your house quickly, how long would it take you to gather up your vital documents? By creating your own Grab n’ Go box and storing it near your front or back door, you can rest assured that you’ll have everything you need in one easy-to-access spot. Some useful items to include in your Grab n’ Go box are:

  • Medical information sheet for each family member, including contact information for your physicians and pharmacy
  • Copy of pharmacy and medical insurance cards
  • Copy of drivers license
  • Copy of social security card
  • Copy of passport
  • Pets’ Records
  • Credit card inventory
  • Bank account listing
  • Investment account information
  • Insurance policy information – home, auto, life, medical and contact information for your insurance agent
  • Spare keys for your house and vehicle
  • Copies of family members birth certificates

Store these items in a portable firebox and be sure everyone in the house knows where the box is located. Should an emergency arise, you will have all your vital records and necessary information at your fingertips.

Simply yours,

Debbie

    Actually, i never heard about this emergency grab on a box. I do not really know anyone who have it, which makes me think that i need to make my own emergency grab on a box. Thanks for the idea!
