2026 Get Home Bag - All About Getting Home
The reality of 2026 is that instability isn’t something that only happens “somewhere else.” Whether it’s civil unrest, infrastructure failure, severe weather, or gridlock during an emergency, many of us spend large portions of our day far from home — and often reliant on vehicles or public transportation to get back.
That’s where a get home bag comes in.
In this video, I walk through my current get home bag setup and explain how it’s evolved based on today’s environment. This isn’t a fantasy loadout or a full bugout plan. It’s a practical, realistic system built around one question: If I had to walk home today, could I do it safely?
I break down how everyday carry, a vehicle kit, and a dedicated get home bag work together, and why your distance, commute, and threat environment should drive every gear decision. From first aid and protective equipment to water, power, communications, and personal defense, this video explains not just what I carry — but why.
If you live near a city, commute regularly, or simply want a more realistic preparedness plan, this video will give you a framework to build or improve your own get home bag for 2026 and beyond.
