Setting up a temporary shelter in an abandoned building is no easy feat, but it can be done. First, you will need to find an abandoned building that is large enough for your family’s needs and ensure that it is structurally sound. Next, you will need to stock up on emergency supplies—such as tarps, rope, flashlights and batteries—as well as any other necessary materials such as tools for setting up shelter or basic hand tools. Lastly set up the actual structure by gathering poles or logs and attaching them securely to the framework of the building, then attach the tarp or plastic sheeting for roofing.

Remember—this temporary shelter should only be used in case of emergency—it is not meant to provide long-term living accommodations.  Safety standards should always be maintained with any makeshift homes.

Setting up a temporary shelter in an abandoned building is not a recommended solution since it can be dangerous and potentially violate laws and ordinances. It would be best to look into alternative places of residence, such as shelters or hotels, while pursuing more long-term housing solutions.
