Risk of child entrapment 

Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned 

freezers are still dangerous, even if they will “just sit in the garage a few days.” 

 

Before you throw away your old freezer:

 Take off the doors.  Leave the shelves in 

place so that children may not easily climb inside. 

 

Never allow children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the freezer.
