EDCO: Every Day Carry Office Kit

(Before It's News)

EDC officeA lot of people probably haven’t thought about an Every Day Carry Office (EDCO) kit.  This is most likely because people do not think about the items they carry to work everyday as EDC’s and people’s jobs can differ drastically.  While some people may carry a briefcase with pens and organizers, other people carry work gloves and tools.  So, coming up with a basic EDCO kit list can be a hard thing to do. With any EDC kit, you build it to fit your basic needs.

For me personally, no matter which kit I build or carry, I ALWAYS have my EDC Key Ring, because it covers some very basic survival necessities for me.  Things like, mini pry bar, steel precision tweezers, mini flashlight, an emergency whistle, ferro rod/striker wrapped in para-cord, screw driver keys.  You can view more about EDC Key Rings by clicking here.

I am a woman and a writer, so my needs are a little different from a man’s, but I will list a few things that go with me daily to the office.  All of these Items are carried in my purse and lap top bag and kept well-organized.  (Keeping in mind that I also have my EDC car kit and my 72 hour BOB in my trunk as well.)  At the end of this article are more links to all different types of EDC kits that are made, including a link to a long-term BOB list.

In my laptop bag and small backpack:

  • Travel toothbrush/tooth paste
  • Perfume
  • Make-up
  • Hand Sanitizer
  • Nail clippers
  • Eye glass repair kit
  • Tampons/pads

For someone who doesn’t work an office job and works a job that requires more physical labor, their EDCO items may look more like this:

These are just a few items to give you an example of what an EDCO kit might include and how each person’s might be different based on the type of work they do.  As with any Every Day Carry Kit, it must be designed to meet your specific needs and built to help you with every day jobs/tasks.  If you have any added input or questions, please feel free to leave them in the comments section below. :)
