Hi everyone, so in this video, I am going to show you guys
how to organize a deep freezer.
So we just bought a deep freezer for the garage for all the extra meat
and when we bought it, I was so excited to organize it
because I’ve never organized a deep freezer before and
I get excited to organize spots that are new that I’ve
never done before.
That sounds kinda weird but I’m excited to show you what
I’ve done.
If you don’t have a deep freezer, because I know a lot of
people don’t have a deep freezer, then you can watch the
video and get ideas for a space that’s really deep where
you want to make the bottom items accessible.
So here is our deep freezer so I can can quickly show you
guys what it looks like and I can explain what I’ve done here.
So since this is my first time organizing a deep freezer and
I was super excited.
We got it and I spent maybe three hours online researching containers that would divide
the space and make things easy accessible.
Especially the things on the bottom because the space is so deep.
So I spent 3 hours shopping online, but it was totally worth
it as you can see how perfectly these bins fit.
Okay, so maybe there’s half an inch here, there’s space right here, there’s
no space right here, there’s no space right here.
So everything just fits perfectly and it just looks beautiful.
Let me show you guys what I did right here.
Since this space is so deep, I knew I needed to get stackable
bins with handles so I can easily pull something up to get
to things on the bottom without getting frustrated.
So when you have a deep space, you want to have stackable
bins with a handle.
So I got recycling bins that stack real nicely with a handle.
I can just pull this up whenever I want to get to whatever’s on the bottom.
So I just pull this up and you can see I have 2 more recycling bins on
the bottom.
They have handles as well.
So what I did was I sorted all of the meat, so I have
ground beef here, the bin I just took out has steak.
This has other meat and there’s ground beef down there.
But you can see everything is totally accessible and
categorized and at the same time I labeled all the
packaging so I knew when we bought everything.
So this was bought in October 2012, so I know when I am
coming to get it that it’s still good because I can tell
how long it’s been in the freezer.
Everything is labeled, everything is categorized, and everything is in accessible
bins that easy to access.
If I want to get into that bin, I can easily lift this up and then stack on top when I
am done.
So the freezer actually came with this container – now it’s
a tiny container, you would think it would come with another
container but I guess they expect you to organize it yourself.
But this container fit the chicken we bought from Costco so
it fits perfectly inside and that’s where that goes.
I can slide it over and show you guys what’s under
here.
These are boxes that fit perfectly in here.
In this box I have all my holiday baking ingredients that
I freeze so they last longer.
So it’s coconut, cranberries, pecans, almonds and I think there’s some walnuts
in there.
The bottom box as all our ice packs.
So these are the small things that I felt were just floating
around in our freezer in the kitchen and it was frustrating
me so much because I just kept seeing them and they were
all over the freezer.
But they are all nice and contained here at the bottom and easily accessible.
This fits over the top and you an see that space is maximized.
There is maybe one and a half inches of empty space right
here, but it’s maximized.
So what you want to do when you organize the freezer or
the deep freezer or any cold spot in general, is you want
to wear gloves because your hands are going to get so cold.
So wear gloves when you organize this space.
So if you want to know where I got these organizing products,
you can check out my website, Alejandra.tv/products and you
will see these recycling bins there as well.
I will also put a link at the bottom of the video as well.
Okay so those are my ideas for organizing a deep freezer or
any space that is deep that you want to make the bottom
items accessible.
If you have other ideas on how to organize a deep freezer or
a freezer in general, you can leave a comment blow, or a
video response.
I will see you guys soon!
Bye!
