I only have about 200 oz stroked and it fits in my regular freezer.

Then I would pull from the oldest bags when I thawed. I tried other ways and they didn't work as well. Definitely put in your deep freezer if you're not going to be using it quickly. danda on "How do you store your freezer stash?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-freezer-stash#post-1433494 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 11:27:54 +0000 danda 1433494@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @singingbee: I have one box that I am filling and one box that I am am thawing out of in my kitchen freezer. When the box I am filling is full (maybe 10-15 bags, not really sure), I move it to the deep freeze. Each time a box I am thawing from is empty I take the oldest from the deep freeze and put it into the kitchen freezer.

This way everything was pretty easily sorted for me.

Maybe keep just a week or two's worth in the inside freezer? danda on "How do you store your freezer stash?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-freezer-stash#post-1432917 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 06:16:46 +0000 danda 1432917@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We have a Keurig coffee machine and I discovered that the k cup boxes fit the Lansinoh bags perfectly. So we have a deep freeze with k cup boxes lining the entire bottom and occasionally stacked. creativemomma15 on "How do you store your freezer stash?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-freezer-stash#post-1432899 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 05:10:53 +0000 creativemomma15 1432899@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We put the each month's frozen bags in those cloth grocery store bags, the 99 cent ones and organize them that way. We tried gallon ziplock bags but it felt like a lot of bags that way so we just tried this. So far we like it. autumnlove on "How do you store your freezer stash?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-freezer-stash#post-1432877 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 03:18:05 +0000 autumnlove 1432877@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I transfer frozen pumping bags into a gallon ziplock and I arrange by date in my deep freezer.

If it has a temperature dial just set it to the coldest. I freeze mine flat in bags then line them up in a plastic storage container that can fit about a dozen or so lawbee11 on "How do you store your freezer stash?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-freezer-stash#post-1432743 Tue, 18 Feb 2014 22:57:06 +0000 lawbee11 1432743@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @singingbee: Haha our deep freezer is full of BM and nothing else. What do you mean how can you make sure it's cold enough? I assume your deep freezer is colder than your regular freezer? cheesehead on "How do you store your freezer stash?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-freezer-stash#post-1432741 Tue, 18 Feb 2014 22:56:21 +0000 cheesehead 1432741@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I used plastic bins to put my milk in (these: <a href="http://www.sterilite.com/SelectProduct.html?id=442&ProductCategory=179§ion=1)" rel="nofollow">http://www.sterilite.com/SelectProduct.html?id=442&ProductCategory=179§ion=1)</a>. They were about shoebox size and I could line the bags up on their sides and get ~18-20 bags in each one (I froze 4oz in each bag) Then I labeled each bin with how many bags and the dates with a post-it closed in the lid. I EP'd and actually bought a small chest freezer for all my milk. In a deep freezer milk is good for 6-12 months...depending on what website you look up. I always made sure to move my frozen milk to the deep freezer within a month of being pumped (or whenever I filled up a bin). The main thing is to keep your milk in the coldest part of the freezer to make sure it stays at a consistant cold temperature. singingbee on "How do you store your freezer stash?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-store-your-freezer-stash#post-1432731 Tue, 18 Feb 2014 22:47:05 +0000 singingbee 1432731@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I did a search and didn't really find a post that answers my question to the extent that I want it answered. I've been freezing the milk I pump on the weekends and Fridays. I store in the Lasinoh bags and now it's in our side by side freezer compartment. The BM is taking over the freezer and I want to move it to our deep freezer. How do you recommend storing it? How can I make sure it's cold enough (I'm sure it probably is, but I get paranoid about these things)? Anything else you recommend? Lo is almost 4.5 months. Short term goal: 6 months. Long term: 1 year+.
