A wall designed survival kit can make the difference in a survival situation. Being able to have access to it quickly and be relatively easy to move in case you have to bug out can be hard to do. Here is a great survival kit that makes use of a 5 gallon bucket. Below is a list of some important emergency gear so that you can build your own 5 Gallon Bucket Emergency Kit.
