We have ours stocked and always ready. Just add fresh food. We even keep clothes and jackets, boots, spare sneakers, etc. in it. It has it's own bedding, kitchen and bathroom stuff, etc. Everything stays in it. Even have a spare laptop for it. In the winter I have a couple of bins of things we bring in we don't want to freeze. If we had to leave in a hurry just toss the bins back in, unplug it and go. We don't have many natural disasters around here but there are three Nuke plants within 50 miles. Ya never know.
Like you I have bins ready in the off season (6 months of the year :( ), as well as a large bottle of water from a water cooler with a pump if I need it and I make sure that the propane and gas tank are full and the batteries are charged. The worst thing between when I sold my TCer and bought the Class C was not having my bug out vehicle.
So many things that can come up and I would rather be fleeing with my RV than in a car or SUV. Last year with the Fort McMurray wildfire my brother had people come to his RV resort after they had to leave town and all they had to do was pull in, plug in and they were good. May not be ideal but sure better than not having a place for yourself.
