Winter Storage
If you plan to store your outdoor refrigerator for the winter
(rather than leaving it in place), follow these steps to
ensure it’s properly protected and ready to use when
warmer weather returns:
Step 1. Unplug and Power Down
Turn Off the Power: Unplug the refrigerator from the
electrical outlet. If the fridge is hardwired, turn off the
circuit breaker. This prevents any accidental power surges
or running the appliance during cold weather.
Step 2. Empty and Clean the Fridge
Remove All Contents: Take out all food, beverages, and
removable shelves or drawers.
Clean the Interior: Wipe down the interior surfaces with
a mild cleaning solution or a mix of baking soda and
water. Pay extra attention to corners and crevices to
avoid leaving behind any crumbs or spills that could
cause odors or attract pests.
Dry thoroughly: Make sure the fridge is completely dry
before storing. Any remaining moisture can lead to mold
or mildew growth during storage.
Step 3. Clean the Exterior
Wipe down the outside: Clean the exterior with a damp
cloth, and if needed, use a mild detergent to remove
grime or salt (especially if you’re near the coast). Make
sure the fridge is dry before storing.
Check for rust or corrosion: Inspect any metal parts for
rust or corrosion. If you spot any, clean and apply a rust
inhibitor or polish to prevent further damage.
Step 4. Leave the Door Ajar
Prevent odors and mold: Prop the refrigerator door slightly
open during storage to allow airflow inside. This prevents
mold, mildew, and odors from building up. Use a towel
or a door wedge to keep the door ajar.
Step 5. Remove and Store Shelves
Protect removable parts: Remove shelves, trays and store
them separately. Wrapping these in protective material
(like bubble wrap) will prevent them from getting damaged
during the move or storage.
Step 6. Choose a Dry, Safe Storage Location
Indoor storage preferred: If possible, store the fridge in
a dry, temperature-controlled environment like a garage,
basement, or shed. If you're storing it outside, choose a
well-sheltered area (e.g., under a covered patio.)
Avoid freezing temps: Prolonged exposure to freezing
temperatures can damage the internal components of the
fridge. If you're storing it in an unheated space, consider
using a fridge cover with insulation.
Step 7. Prepare for Moving
Secure and protect: If moving the fridge to storage, secure
the door with tape or a bungee cord. Use padding or
blankets to protect the fridge from damage.
Use a Dolly: Refrigerators are heavy and cumbersome
to move, so use a dolly or a hand truck to transport it
safely. Always keep the fridge upright during the move to
prevent refrigerant from shifting within the unit, which
can cause compressor damage.
Step 8. Check Before Reusing in Spring
Inspect the Unit: Before you plug the fridge back in after
winter storage, inspect the interior and exterior for any
signs of damage, mold, or pests. Clean the fridge again
and let it run for a few hours to ensure it's working. If
the fridge has been laid down, make sure you stand it
upright for 24 hours.
