Prechill food, drinks, and cooler interior. Use 0.75 lbs of ice per rated quart, preferably cubed.
Place ice in the cooler last to ensure cold air travels down for optimal beverage chilling.
Prevent storing the cooler in hot places like garages or car trunks to maintain performance.
Positioning the cooler in the shade can double the ice's longevity.
Use cube ice for quick cooling and block ice for extended cold retention.
Melted ice water helps preserve ice better than empty air space.
Close the cooler lid promptly after opening to prevent cold air escape.
Utilize separate coolers for frequently accessed beverages and bulk food for better ice retention.
Place perishable items directly on ice and use sealed containers to keep them dry.
Wrap dry ice in newspaper and place on top of food, avoiding direct contact with the cooler liner.
Wash the cooler with mild soap and water; use baking soda for tough stains.
Use diluted bleach solution or vanilla extract-soaked cloth to eliminate persistent odors.
Always air-dry the cooler with the lid open before storing to prevent mold and odors.
