What is prepping?



preparing for an emergency





Prepping (short for "preparations" or "preparedness") is the practice of actively preparing for future emergencies, disasters, pandemics or disruptions in every day life.

There are two main strategies:



"Bugging in" vs. "Bugging Out".



When a crisis hits, preppers generally have two plans of action:



  • Bugging in: Staying at home and turning it into a safe haven. This is the most preferred method for most situations (for example, a pandemic) because you have all your supplies, comfort and shelter ready.

  • Bugging out: Evacuating your home because staying there has become too dangerous (like during a wildfire, a hurricane or if civil war breaks out). Preppers often keep a Bug out Bag (BOB) which is a backpack packed with 72 hours worth of survival essentials - ready to grab at a moments notice

    

At ggbs, we have extensive knowledge of utilising both of the above strategies.

emergency self sufficiency

The core philosophy is simple: Instead of relying on the government or emergency services, you take personal responsibility to ensure you and your family can survive on your own.
