If you are looking to put together a 72-hour kit and you don't know where to start, you may want to consider just purchasing one. You can purchase 72-hour kit buckets at Costco locally, or you can also get bucket/backpack versions here.
I recommend the Deluxe Emergency Backpack Kit (pictured on the left), which costs $54.95 right now (for the 1-person version, though you can buy packs for up to 4 people). There is a bulk discount offered on the website, but it doesn't take any more money off of that discounted price.Also, you may notice this website has some great advice as well. There's a right hand column that helps you prepare family evacuation plans, what to do in case of flood, fire, or earthquake, etc. This is a great starting point resource if you are looking for some basic information.
For better information on preparedness topics, however, I recommend you visit the FEMA website here.
