This should do it.

I know you can't fit all of that.... but it is recommended any important documents, photos, etc. to be stored in a dishwasher. They are sealed and attached to counters so not likely to be as disturbed. I suggest putting anything in plastic first, then in the dishwasher and close it tight.

Also, the tub to your washing machine can be used either to protect stuff or to fill with ice and drinks so if the power is out for a few days you don't have to open the fridge every time you want a drink. If you use it for ice, you can drain the water right out. If you use it to protect, wrap plastic around everything you can and fit it in there.

Just some suggestions I've heard that make sense.

Good luck!

Ah, weather experts sweating bullets as of this time, hoping their Irma track prognostications don't turn out to be wolf-crying. The dang thing has been crawling along the Cuban coast for twelve hours, tantalizing the guys watching it and insisting it will turn north at any moment. If Irma decides to head into the gulf instead of following predictions, all of our cards will probably remain safe.

Good luck, George. Stay safe.

Good luck and stay safe!

I always imagined that putting cards or other items along desiccant inside of those ammunition cans (metal or plastic ones with a rubber gasket on the lid) would suffice in an emergency.

Hope all faired alright during the storm. I still don't have any power and I have limbs down all over, but at least the family was safe.
