Help please! Broken fridge-freezer

Apologies for very boring post, but I got up this morning and my FF isn't keeping anything cold/frozen. The lights are on and it's making a gurgling sound and everything is defrosting. Confused

I've booked a repair service, hopefully for today, but it's absolutely chocka with food which is all going to be wasted if can't be kept cold. My mum is only my local family and only has a tiny freezer box anyway.

Should I leave stuff in there or put into cool bags? Is it worth asking on the street WhatsApp group if anyone can store stuff for me??!

Leave in there and don't open it. If freezer is full it should be ok for a few hours - I actually moved house with a full freezer which of course you can't plug in for a few hours after moving it.

Must've been breaking down for a while as everything is already defrosting.

Thankfully, I did ask on the WhatsApp and a man renovating his house had an empty freezer and is now storing nearly the entire contents for me!

Aren't people lovely sometimes?!
