That's why I'm going for the solar shingles, at first glance they look like regular shingles and won't call attention to us. I am also looking at a company here that does portable solar for the military. Supposedly they can power a lot and be able to move the generator/converter when and wherever ever they want. I also want to put up a flagpole that doubles as a wind turbine, just have to check township regulations on that to make sure I can go up high enough and get the funds to do it
I haven't heard much about solar shingles in the last decade or so. In the past, they had gotten very poor marks, and to be honest, I don't remember why. They were a good idea at the time, but for some reason, they didn't work well. I hope the new company you are looking into has perfected them, just try and ask a ton of questions on how they have made them better. Don't mean to be bossy, I just don't want to see someone get burned by a company making big promises they may not be able to back up.

I would plan on hitting up the self storage facilities around me. We have several, and none have 24/7 employees. If I'm desperate enough to open someone's locker, I'm not really worried about cameras. While I am at it, the U-haul self storage has a giant propane tank for refills, and lots of trucks and trailers to help me get it home. I plan on leaving my credit card to pay for it all.
um... "MAY be taboo"?
Religious locales will be among the softest of targets for the mobs, and for the least amount of supplies. Torn up within days for the precious metals, candles,
and anything they can use to start a fire elsewhere.
Have to admit, this is one of the most uncomfortable replies.
IF SHTF is set off by a money collapse, such plastic irony would be thundering.
Car lots are difficult if not impossible to defend against looters or rioters. U-haul or Penske or any open marshalling yard, too. I've noted UPS and FedEx have walled yards, by and large. The most impervious yards out here are the cab company yards, for fear some gang-banger they have long-hauled may come back with a krewe, and address their billing tactics with sledges and bats.
at a self storage place, I'd be more worried running into someone like myself picking up my RV or stored camping gear .... especially if my gear was in your truck ....

they'll be refugee centers .... same thing with the public buildings that aren't being used as command & control .... that's why you have an area previously scoped out - places to avoid
Scoped out... places to avoid... supplies and locations. Needs to be implemented into some kind of plan. When an event happens, the fam can open the plan book and know what to do, because fear and adrenalin can mess up a persons memory!!
A plan book written up BY HAND... or at most, typed or printed up with an air-gapped, non-wifi system. Sorry, sorry Nephew Norbert, you don't get a free line into prepper bug out plans on THIS one either. Si***rf****r.
I'd say every month do updates with the whole family, burn and flush changed sections, and keep it somewhere in the home -20, secure but easy to get to if you know what you're after.
