Prepping for the longshoremen strike: what should we be buying now? The news stories are making it sound bad, but there are no tangible lists of what to stock up on. Maybe we can start a list and spread the word.

First, will it happen, and if so, how bad will it be?

I consider myself pretty well prepared for the worst case scenario regarding anything. But I have to admit, this looming strike has me puzzled. If I live in a flyover state, how will this affect me? If I am on the East Coast what then?

What types of products might we see shortages of?

What might the ripple effects be that we should be prepared for?

Is there anything on the boats that won't be offloaded that I make use of and would need?

What's the risk of stocking up on stuff you'll use over time? Expiration dates?

These are just some of the questions we still have time to discuss and answer, and provide guidance for one another to both use and share with others.

Only because almost everything comes by barge. Step son works in Oregon unloading/cleaning ships. He expects to be impacted. 🤷‍♀️

Thanks for replying. I have a cousin in Fairbanks so I was genuinely curious.

No problem. I’ve been here for 44 years (husband’s been here 50+). I had family who were here for the quake in 1964. Power used to go out regularly, almost weekly. I can’t imagine not being prepared for catastrophe. We built our house with the idea that we may be stuck here for an indefinite period of time, on our own. I wish your cousin well. Fairbanks is a great place. I have family there too. Cheers.
