Organization may not seem like an important aspect of prepping, but you need to organize your survival stockpile and the rest of your home if you want to be an efficient prepper.
This ensures that when SHTF, you can easily grab supplies or survival gear when you need them without wasting time rummaging through a messy drawer. (h/t to TheSurvivalMom.com)
If you’re overwhelmed with organizing your home and preps, start by making a list of where your food stockpile, stored water and other preps are located.
Next, try to organize closets or your stockroom using these eight general categories:
After unpacking everything in a drawer or the closet, you can decide how to store them according to the categories. Each prepper’s categories might be different, but the important thing is to gather all items in one place so you can make an inventory and start sorting.
Once you store all items in bins or their respective packaging or boxes, stack them properly so you can easily see all the labels.
If you have young children, store their bug-out bags or camping gear on hooks at their eye level. (Related: The ultimate guide to long-term food storage: What you need to know.)
If your emergency supplies and preps are scattered throughout your house, you might want to store most of them in one location. Doing so makes it easier to sort them by category. It’s also easier to find items for specific situations.
If you have a lot of gear and supplies, you should organize everything before SHTF. This ensures that no time is wasted when you need to bug out or find a specific item during different emergencies.
There are different ways of organizing, but sorting similar items by category and storing them in containers should work for most of your prepping needs.
Assemble all items in one place. This pile will include all your emergency supplies and preps. It’s also better to separate the largest items from the smaller items, but it can wait if you want to store them separately in other locations.
Use these categories to sort all items in separate piles:
Once all items are sorted into these categories, identify additional categories for the remaining items if needed. If you can’t, store these items in a separate container marked “miscellaneous.”
Figure out what kind of containers you’ll need for each category and how large those containers need to be. You don’t need to have matching or color-coordinated containers unless you are using them for easy identification. Fill and label each container of supplies.
If you have a closet or a spare room for storage, move the organized supplies there and use sturdy shelving if you have them.
Once you’re done, restock any items that you need more of before SHTF.
