For many years we had been diligently organising emergency disaster survival packs and other emergency preparedness items, always looking for ways to improve our packs in case of an unpredictable natural disaster or emergency.
We have seen first hand what can happen when you don't have an emergency survival pack and offer 12 instructional videos to help you with your personal preparedness.
With experience in the Australian Army, we had seen our fair share of catastrophic floods and bushfires, and more importantly, those who were helplessly affected by it.
That is why we kept a close eye on our own packs, making sure it would not fail us when we needed them most.
As our family grew with marriages and children we realised that not all new members to our family knew much about 72-hour packs and other emergency preparedness planning.
So we made it a family mission to meet regularly with our packs and discuss ways to improve them and to educate the new members of our family about these life saving survival techniques.
Together we became more and more focussed on ensuring all our family were prepared with the right emergency survival packs, so in the event of an natural emergency everyone from the kids to the grandparents would be as prepared as possible.
Not only did these measures make us all feel safer as a family, but it also began to raise our awareness of an ill-equipped emergency survival pack.
Preparing emergency survival packs for able bodied adults is one thing, but preparing emergency survival packs for kids and those not so able bodied is quite another. That's when we realised the big problem with home-made emergency disaster survival packs.
Depending on the distance one might have to travel, they could easily become very uncomfortable and difficult to manage.
Your emergency survival packs weight may not seem like a big deal now but after a few long kilometres on foot, you will begin to question if you really need all those gadgets in your bag.
Once this became apparent to us - that lugging a well-equipped emergency bag around for sometime can become bothersome for kids and the elderly - we decided to create an emergency survival pack that would meet the following criteria;
The elderly must be able to carry the emergency survival pack comfortably over long distances
Pregnant women and nursing mothers must be able to carry the emergency survival pack comfortably over long distances and...
The children must be able to carry the emergency survival pack comfortably over long distances
As well as this we also needed to ensure that the emergency survival contents were;
Lightweight
Reliable
Easy to use
This gave us a new direction to set about meeting these challenges and when we talked with friends and extended family members we found they too had similar challenges.
So after tedious and painstaking research of going through hundreds of emergency survival items, not only did we find emergency survival products that met our needs, but we also found emergency survival products that were genuinely affordable.
It was at that moment we realised we could help our families AND friends AND everyone else by creating a reliable and cost efficient emergency disaster survival pack - so we did.
We created 3 emergency survival packs in fact, each one customised to suit the most common emergency conditions - An emergency survival pack for evacuating home, and an emergncy surviva pack for returning home.
Our first emergency survival pack - the Ultra Evac - is the lightest, most comprehensive emergency disater survival pack available. And it fits all our selection criteria perfectly, just like our other two emergency survival packs.
The Car Companion and the Bucket Buddy were designed to keep you covered in an emergency survival disaster in case you happened to get yourself into one while away from home.
Since creating the Total Self Reliance Emergency Survival Packs we have gone on from securing our families disaster safety and onto ensuring the emergency safety of all those who may encounter an emergency.
We pray the emergency disaster we prepare for may never come, but in case it does we will continue to offer our disaster survival packs and our emergency survival education mini course, to all those who recognize the importance of emergency safety, and the value of personal preparedeness and self reliance.
