My Nana’s Secret to Keeping a Deep Freezer Perfectly Organized
Examining and Purging Your Freezer’s Contents
As you relocate your frozen foods, check each item to see if it is still good.
If it looks or smells funny, toss it.
Freezer-burned food is safe to eat but personally, I would get rid of it.
It’s up to you to decide.
Use these guidelines to help you decide what needs to go and what you can keep.
Draining Your Deep Chest Freezer
Once you’ve relocated all your foods, remove any baskets, bins, or dividers.
Once your freezer has defrosted, you will need to drain any standing water.
Follow your chest freezer’s recommendations for draining it.
In case you don’t have the manual, look for a spout on the outside of the freezer where you can connect a garden hose to it.
Others like my own, only have an opening (capped) and no way to attach a hose.
