How to organize chest freezer

[Motherofmonsters]

Hello,

I have a chest freezer that has been filling up and at the moment everything is chucked in there. I was wondering if anyone actually has a system for theirs i.e. sections or inserts.

Thank you

ruthless efficiency...it's the only way.

label EVERYTHING, sharpies or dry board pens are good. I kept a book as well, with it all listed and cross referenced with any meal planning to make sure the defrosting was listed on the day before!

and with a big chest freezer use supermarket bags to corral stuff together...joints of meat, packs of meat, veg bags, icecreams, bread

I use bags for life to separate the different types of food. Bread and milk goes on top at one end and I have things like bacon and icecubes in the baskets. I don't keep a list of what I've got .

Thank you for your replies, it looks like supermarket bags are a good way to it

I have a couple of these in mine, I've put some rope in a loop through the handles of the top one as it's easier to pull out

crates

Another bags for life user here , one for each type of meat and one for fruit and veg

Why didn't I think of the bag idea!
I have a method but it's hit and miss.

I'd like to get some baskets but, as present it's generally boxes on the little ledge thing, vegetables and bags in the basket.

Then as pretty much all the meat is in food bags, having been divided up from a costco run, it sits as chicken, pork, beef and fish, roast joints and random, along the bottom.

At the moment it's really bare, but if it's restocked I rotate, so i take out the older stuff and then put on top of the new stuff.

There's inevitably a couple of random items dumped across the organised meat.

If I batch cook, it normally gets stacked on one side. Not that I ever...
