FAQs

What makes ReadyPack different?

Preparedness without the panic. Compact, clearly labeled kits with only the useful stuff, plain language, and calm design.

Who are these kits for?

Real life: condos, commutes, campus, road trips. Start small with a MiniPack, and work up to a full 72-hour emergency kit as we launch more products!

Are these just first-aid kits?

No. They include first-aid and hydration, light, weather, and small utilities, so they’re useful beyond bandages.

Can I customize a kit?

Not yet. You can add Car, Dorm/Home, Winter, Kid, or Pet add-ons (when available) to tailor your kit.

How long do items last?

Tabs, meds, and sealed rations typically last 1–5 years. Check each package for its specific date.

How do I track expiries?

Each kit includes a tiny expiry strip. Mark dates for bars, meds, and tabs; check twice a year.

Are the food rations nut-free/allergy friendly?

Mini snacks are selected to be heat-stable and nut-free. Always check the label before use.

Are the masks medical-grade?

Kits include KN95 respirator masks for general air-quality events (e.g., smoke). They are not a substitute for fit-tested PPE.

Medical Advice?

Follow on-package instructions. When in doubt, consult a healthcare professional.

How do water purification tablets work?

One tab treats 1 litre. Use the fold-flat pouch, add a tab, wait the time on the packet (usually 30 mins), then drink.

Can I fly with the MiniPack?

Most items are fine in checked bags. Matches may not be allowed—remove them before flying and re-add later.

Where do you ship from?

Canada. Orders ship domestically.

How long does shipping take?

Typically 5-10 business days. You'll get a tracking number once your order leaves our facility.

I used a few items, can I get a refill?
