A free emergency kit checklist that counts for your home and knows what runs out next

A free page in six languages: water and meals counted for your household, a tick and a best-before date for every thing, a calendar file with reminders, a printout and an Excel file for the web app.

The emergency kit lists from FEMA, the Japanese government and Russia's МЧС are lists of things to buy: water, food, a flashlight, batteries. None of them works out how much water three people need for three days, and none of them tells you that the crackers you packed two years ago have expired. AllKeep Inventory now has a free page for it in six languages, with no account: inventory.allkeep.org/en/emergency-kit-checklist.

Counted for your home

Choose how many people, how long the kit should last and how much water a person needs a day. The page counts the litres and meals, and one blanket, raincoat and whistle per person. Baby and pet things show only when your home has them. The things on the list are the ones those national lists share.

Three people for three days: 36 litres of water and 27 meals, with ticks, counts and best-before dates

On a phone, each thing's count and date sit under its name.

What runs out next

Tick what is packed and type the date printed on each pack. The kit shows what has expired, what runs out within 60 days and the next five things to replace. The calendar file (.ics) holds every date as an event with a reminder two weeks before.

The kit: 11 of 31 packed, one thing expired, two running out within 60 days, the next five to replace

On paper and in the app

The printout has every group with what you need, how many you packed and the best-before dates, and "check again by" the earliest one.

The printed checklist: one table per group with need, packed and best before

The Excel file opens in the web app's import as one box called Emergency kit, each thing with its count and expiry date, so Home shows them before they run out. The list stays in your browser, and what you type is not sent to us.

The downloaded file in the web app's import: 10 things in one box, with Best before read as the expiry date
