English term or phrase: ready-to-go box
In an emergency, you may have just a few seconds to leave your home.
So it’s a good idea to put together a box of items you would want to take with you if you have to get out fast.
Think of it as your “ready-to-go” box -- it should hold everything you would need to be ready to go to a safer location.

agree  Silvia Brandon-Pérez: Aunque lista para llevar traduce lo que dice en inglés, esta opción traduce lo que va en la caja. La prefiero.
