* ''[[Legion of Super-Heroes (comics)|Legion of Super-Heroes]]:'' During the second Universo story arc, the Legion has been outlawed and everyone on Earth turned against them by the mind-controlling villain. All their resources have been stripped away. Good thing they just happen to stumble across one of [[Superman|Lex Luthor's]] old hideaways, still fully stocked and [[Ragnarok Proofing|functional after a thousand years.]]

* ''[[Life As We Knew It]]''
* The heroes in [[Stephen King]]'s [[Zombie Apocalypse]] novel ''[[Cell]]'' loot the home of the neighborhood gun-enthusiast for weapons and ammunition.
* Prior to the [[The End of the World as We Know It|Waterless Flood]], the God's Gardeners in ''[[The Year of the Flood]]'' are encouraged to build and maintain "Ararats", basically food stores meant to enable them to survive the apocalypse. {{spoiler|Given the nature of the [[The Plague|Flood]] when it does come, the Ararats don't do most of the Gardeners much good}}.

* in the ''[[Mistborn]]'' series, it turns out that Lord Ruler had made a number of these {{spoiler|specifically in case of his defeat}}. They come in real useful when the shit hits the fan in the third book.
* The Stockpiles in ''[[Deathlands]]'' are the US government's version of these; unfortunately there's [[The End of the World as We Know It|no more United States left]]. [[Intrepid Merchant]] The Trader has become quite wealthy and powerful in this [[Scavenger World]] due to his ability to locate these hidden government stashes.
* One way the protagonist of ''[[I Am Legend]]'' survives as long as he does is by finding stashes collected by other, failed survivors.
* ''[[Battlestar Galactica
