Checklists

Four kits cover almost everything: the go-bag you grab, the pantry you shelter with, the car that carries you, and the folder that rebuilds your life. Ticks are saved on this device automatically. Print any list with the button at the bottom — printed boxes come out empty for pen-and-paper use.

How to build kits without the budget hurting: one group per week. Most items are already in the house — the first session is gathering, not shopping. Date-check reminder: put "check kits" in your phone calendar every 6 months, on dates you'll remember.

Packing layout. What you need fast (first aid, torch, documents) lives at the top and in the lid; weight hugs your back.

Ticks are stored only in this browser on this device. Each family member's phone keeps its own copy — which is useful: one phone tracks the go-bags, another the car.
