Civil defence grab bags

In New Zealand a grab bag is what you take when you leave home in a hurry — quake, flood, tsunami warning, or any civil defence call to evacuate. Buy a ready bag below, or build your own from empty bags and medical supplies.

Grab bag vs workplace kit

Workplace kits stay on site for day-to-day injuries. A grab bag leaves with you. Do not rely on the office kit if you may need to evacuate from home or the road.

What usually goes in a NZ grab bag

Get Ready and local CDEM advice typically cover:

  • Drinking water and shelf-stable food for a few days
  • A torch and spare batteries (or a power bank)
  • A battery or wind-up radio
  • A first aid kit suited to your household
  • Copies of important documents and some cash
  • Warm layers, rain cover, and personal medicines

Building your own

If you already own an empty first aid bag, stock it from medical supplies rather than buying a second sealed kit. Add lighting and power from the accessories range when you need torch or battery backup.
