A while ago I wrote an article called 50 Items You Forgot To Put In Your Bug Out Bag<\/strong><\/a>. Several readers complained, saying things like, \u201cHow the hell am I supposed to fit all this stuff in my bug out bag?\u201d Well, you\u2019re not. The point of the article is to tell people about any items they would have included but either forgot about or hadn\u2019t considered yet.<\/p>\n

Every bug out bag should be 100% unique. Sure, there are some basic items that every bug out bag should have (food, lighter, water filter, flashlight, etc.), but you should customize your bag based on where you live, what type of disaster is most likely to occur in your area, and how much weight you can carry over a long distance. Many preppers forget about that last point.<\/p>\n

If your bag is so heavy that you can\u2019t carry it more than a few miles, you\u2019ll have to ditch some of the items, anyway. And what\u2019s going to happen if you have to run from attackers, jump walls, and climb fences? Having a bag that\u2019s too heavy could get you killed. Ideally, a bug out bag should weigh about 15% of your body weight, assuming you\u2019re in decent shape. 20% of your body weight should be the absolute maximum.<\/p>\n

So despite the impression many people got from my \u201c50 Items\u201d article, I don\u2019t think you should pack your bug out bag with as many items as possible. In fact, I think you should check your bag for any non-essential items with a large weight-to-space ratio and remove them. To that end, here\u2019s a list of survival items I\u2019ve seen in various lists online that, in my opinion, you don\u2019t really need in your bug out bag.<\/p>\n

Note: These are merely suggestions so please don\u2019t follow my advice blindly. Use your best judgement before throwing anything away.<\/p>\n
