Abstract
A system providing rapid and efficient evacuation of valuables from a storage site such a home or office. Such rapid evacuation is often required in the face of impending disaster. A storage container, for example a drawer, is provided with an inner lining. Valuables are stored on the lining within the drawer. The lining itself is an open carrier having side walls which are folded so as to configure the liner to the drawer. In the case of emergency evacuation, the side walls of the liner are rapidly unfolded by grasping draw strings which act to remove the liner from the drawer and to close the liner to provide a closed transport carrier for the valuables stored within the drawer.
