We will be perfectly honest with you. We never knew there was a difference between a bug-out bag (BOB) and an INCH bag. And perhaps, for some, there is no difference.

However, if we are going to really break it down a BOB is the security item you take with you when you are on your way, when you have to get away from home and live out in the wilderness (or wherever your bug-out takes you) for an extended period of time, maybe days or weeks.

There is always the potential of returning home.

On the other hand, an INCH bag stands for “I’m Never Coming Home” and while you take all your necessities in a BOB the INCH bag is permanent.

Perhaps, your home has been destroyed, there is no more food or water in your home, or it has been taken over by rioters! In this case, you are out of there and your INCH bag will be bigger than a bug-out bag.

On the next page we will give you information on what you should be packing in your INCH bag; what you may need more of, the items your might not think about placing in a BOB.
