Oh bummer! The blue bins that sit across the top of the freezer came with the freezer itself, but all of the square colored bins I found at my local Dollar Tree. These are the ones I used: https://www.dollartree.com/colorful-stackable-plastic-baskets/197423 in two different sizes, and https://www.dollartree.com/plastic-locker-bins-with-handles/206196

Stores and cannot find them. I can’t find these in any of our dollar stores around where I live and I’m desperate

You can also freeze milk (only fill 3/4 of the container), beaten eggs and cheese. You can pre-cut cheese. You can freeze shredded cheese but don’t shred your own and then freeze it or it will clump. Shred it after you thaw it out a block. If you’re making pastry grating frozen butter is actually easier than trying to cut it in with a pastry cutter.

I saw a video or two on you tube. Bree’s project book show you exactly how to organize a chest freezer in three layers using different types of storage containers and the strategy of putting certain types of foods in different bins. Like chicken in one bin, pork in another bin and beef in a third bin. She gives ideas of how you dump any cardboard boxes they may have come in if they are sealed and easy to identify. You use a magic marker and write the date purchased on it and what it is. Ie salmon filet blackened, 5/1/2020. Things that aren’t individually wrapped can be placed in zip log bags and grouped in numbers for your family. Like if there are three of you you can place three or more salmon patties in a zip log bag depending on how many your family consumes in one meal. Veggies and side go in another bin so you can easily grab some broccoli or some Mac & cheese to go with your meat. Desserts and snacks to grab and run or frozen waffles or pancakes etc go in a bin for on the top layer. Breads, rolls, bagels cookies, go in a baked goods bin. Hope this helps.

Those two large blue baskets are the ones that came with our chest freezer.

Cleaning my freezer out today I see where I had several of the same types of things at the bottom of the freezer now that I know how to organize that will be eliminated
Thank you for your organization tips
