A Get Home Bag is not something you need every time the check-engine light comes on.

It is for the situation where you can no longer count on the vehicle to finish the trip.

That could mean:

• A breakdown you cannot repair where it sits
• A road closure that leaves you unable to continue
• A weather interruption that changes the plan
• An off-road breakdown that requires walking back for help
• Leaving a disabled vehicle at a trailhead or along the road
• A commute or road trip where continuing on foot becomes the practical option

Level 1 is designed to give you a compact group of useful supplies for the person, rather than another pile of equipment for the vehicle.

Individual components may vary based on supplier availability. When a substitution is necessary, Rig Ready Gear may replace an item with a comparable component intended to serve the same general function and purpose.

A jack, recovery strap, winch, tire repair kit, spare parts, and hand tools all have one thing in common:

They are there to solve a vehicle problem.

And you should carry them.

But eventually you can run into a problem the tools in the rig cannot fix—a mechanical failure, blocked road, weather issue, or disabled vehicle that has to stay where it is.

At that point, the vehicle stops being the solution.

The Level 1 Get Home Bag gives you a compact set of supplies for you when continuing the trip means getting out of the vehicle and moving on without it.

LEVEL 1 — COMPACT & EASY TO CARRY

The best choice when you want a smaller bag that can live in the vehicle without taking up much room.

Best for: commuters, work vehicles, everyday road trips, trailheads, off-road rigs, and customers who prioritize portability.

Format: Sling bag
Loaded weight: Approximately 5 lb 5 oz

LEVEL 2 — MORE CAPACITY

Level 2 steps up to a larger backpack format with more supplies and broader medical, water, and utility support.

Choose Level 2 when you want more capability and are willing to carry a larger bag.

LEVEL 3 — MOST COMPREHENSIVE

Level 3 is the largest and most comprehensive Get Home Bag in the RRG lineup, with expanded support for medical, water, food, fire, shelter, tools, and comfort.

Choose Level 3 when capacity matters more than keeping the bag small.

Simple rule:
Want the smallest, easiest bag to grab and carry? Level 1.
Want more capacity? Level 2.
Want the most complete setup? Level 3.

Level 1 uses a compact sling-bag layout rather than a traditional two-strap backpack.

That makes it easier to grab from the vehicle, throw over a shoulder, and carry when you do not need the capacity of Levels 2 or 3.

The bag includes:

• Multiple zippered storage areas
• Exterior MOLLE/webbing
• Externally accessible tourniquet placement
• Carry handle
• Sling-style shoulder strap
• Integrated handgun holster compartment

The holster compartment is there for customers who use it. It does not define the bag, and the Level 1 can be carried and used without a firearm.

Firearm and ammunition are not included.

You can build a Get Home Bag yourself.

But doing it properly means finding the bag, trauma supplies, water support, food, fire-starting equipment, light, signaling gear, utility items, and comfort supplies individually—then figuring out how to organize all of it into something you will actually keep in the vehicle and carry.

Level 1 does that work for you.

The result is one compact, organized sling bag built around a specific job: giving you useful backup when the vehicle can no longer get you where you need to go.

No inflated item-count game. No giant backpack stuffed with filler.

Just a practical vehicle-preparedness bag you can grab and carry.

What is a Get Home Bag?

A Get Home Bag is a portable vehicle-preparedness bag for the person, not the vehicle.

It carries useful supplies for situations where a breakdown, road closure, weather interruption, or other problem means the vehicle cannot complete the trip and you may need to continue on foot.

What is the Level 1 Get Home Bag designed for?

Level 1 is the compact, easiest-to-carry Get Home Bag in the Rig Ready Gear lineup.

It is designed for commuters, work vehicles, road trips, trailheads, off-road trips, breakdowns, road closures, weather interruptions, and situations where the vehicle may need to be left behind.

Why would I need one if I already carry tools and recovery gear?

Tools and recovery equipment are designed to solve vehicle problems.

A Get Home Bag is for the point where the vehicle cannot be repaired, recovered, or used to finish the trip. Level 1 provides basic supplies for the person if continuing means leaving the vehicle and moving on foot.

The two types of gear complement each other rather than replace each other.

When would I actually use it?

You could use a Get Home Bag after a breakdown you cannot repair, an off-road problem that requires walking for help, a road closure, a weather interruption, or another situation where staying with or continuing in the vehicle is no longer practical.

It is not intended to turn every inconvenience into an emergency. It is simply backup for situations where the vehicle stops being your transportation.

Is it for commuters, off-road vehicles, or both?

Both.

The Level 1 works in a daily commuter, work truck, road-trip vehicle, Jeep, SxS support vehicle, tow rig, or other off-road setup. Its compact size makes it especially useful where storage space is limited.

Is this a bug-out bag?

No.

The Level 1 is a Get Home Bag built around practical vehicle interruptions, not an apocalypse or long-term evacuation kit.

Its job is much simpler: provide a compact set of useful supplies when your vehicle cannot get you home or to your next safe destination.

What is the difference between Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3?

Level 1 prioritizes portability. It uses a compact sling bag and is the easiest of the three to keep in a vehicle and carry.

Level 2 adds capacity and broader supplies in a larger backpack.

Level 3 is the most comprehensive option, with the greatest overall capacity and expanded medical, water, food, fire, shelter, tool, and comfort support.

Does the Level 1 include a handgun holster?

Yes. The sling bag includes an integrated handgun holster compartment.

The holster is an optional-use feature; the bag does not require a firearm to serve its primary Get Home Bag function. Firearm and ammunition are not included.

Where should I keep it?

Keep it in a location inside your vehicle where you can get to it without unloading half the rig first.

Common locations include behind a seat, in an accessible cargo area, or with your regular road-trip or trail gear. The Level 1 is compact enough for commuter vehicles, work vehicles, Jeeps, trucks, tow rigs, and off-road setups.

What are the major components?

The Level 1 includes a mix of trauma supplies, bottled water, a food ration bar, water purification tablets, fire-starting supplies, emergency warmth, light and signaling equipment, a seatbelt cutter/window breaker, duct tape, zip ties, basic utility gear, hygiene items, and an integrated holster-equipped sling bag.

It is intended to cover several practical needs in one compact package rather than specialize in only one category.

How heavy is it?

The Level 1 Get Home Bag weighs approximately 5 lb 5 oz loaded.

That relatively compact loaded weight is one of the reasons Level 1 is the easiest RRG Get Home Bag to grab and carry when you have to leave the vehicle behind.

A Get Home Bag cannot guarantee that you will get home, and it does not replace good judgment, vehicle maintenance, recovery equipment, roadside assistance, emergency services, medical care, or appropriate training.

Inspect the bag periodically and replace any supplies that have been used, damaged, or expired.

Individual components may occasionally vary based on supplier availability. When a substitution is necessary, Rig Ready Gear may replace an item with a comparable component intended to serve the same general function and purpose. The core capability and intended use of the Level 1 Get Home Bag remain the same.
