3 Person Essential Survival Kit Bucket and Lid – 72 Hour Emergency Kit

3 Person Essential Survival Kit in a Stackable Bucket for Small Groups

Outfitting a family of three or a small group with balanced emergency supplies is simple with this 3 person essential survival kit bucket.

The Essential tier strikes the ideal middle ground for families who want more coverage than the Necessity tier without the premium Comfort price.

Inside the sealed bucket you will find tripled food and water with a 5-year shelf life, a bandage kit, an AM/FM radio for emergency broadcasts, a hand-rechargeable flashlight, three emergency blankets, three ponchos, three hand warmers, three deluxe hygiene kits, a pocket knife, safety goggles, a sewing kit, and fire-starting tools.
