- Get everything you need to store ready in resealable containers: Snacks, beverages, frozen items, desserts, marinated meat, vegetables
- Have a bag of ice placed in the empty ice box or cooler, so that it chills before the final use
- Filling the ice box or cooler to the brim will leave area for the air to enter, making the ice melt
- Stock the items as per the need for refrigeration. For example, the meat can be placed on the bottom-most layer of ice and the vegetables can be put at the top most level.
- Use block ice and not crushed ice to ensure high durability. Adding salt to the water before freezing immensely lowers the freezing temperature, making the ice colder.
- Chilled the packed food overnight for more durability.
- For longer storage duration, use ice cubes with blocks. For weekend trips, reusable cooler packs can be of great help too.
