Choose water storage by filled weight, grip and pouring control, not capacity alone.

Label stored water so its history stays clear
A clear label should tell someone what the water is for and when it entered storage.
Water & pantry
Work out water needs beyond drinking
Cooking and hygiene can consume the reserve too. Assign water to the jobs your household actually needs.

Know the difference between a filter and a purifier

Build meals that do not need a stove
Build complete cold meals from foods you already eat, with water, utensils and cleanup included.
Water & pantry

Check that the person who needs the food can open its packaging without electricity.

Choose familiar food for a household emergency shelf
Use the household's normal preferences to build a reserve people will willingly eat.
