## What Harry’s Is and How It Works

What arrives, who cleans, how long you keep the coolers, and why choosing the right size matters.

### What is Harry’s Ice Box Cleaning Company?
Harry’s delivers enough coolers and ice to hold your food while you empty and clean your refrigerator. Cleaning supplies are included. Silver and Gold include dry ice for frozen food, and Harry’s picks everything up when you are finished.

### Is Harry’s an in-home refrigerator cleaning service?
No. Harry’s does not send someone into your home to clean the refrigerator. We deliver the coolers, ice, and supplies, and you do the cleaning.

### Is this just a box of cleaning supplies?
No. Cleaning supplies are included, but the main value is having enough coolers and ice for all your food while you clean the entire refrigerator.

### Why would I need coolers and ice to clean my refrigerator?
Refrigerator cleaning often gets delayed because fresh and frozen food has to be juggled, making it hard to give your fridge a really good deep clean. We recommend using the coolers and ice to empty your fridge completely. Harry’s gives you enough room to keep everything cold while you clean.

### What area does Harry’s serve?
Harry’s serves San Diego County. Because we’re local, we can deliver and pick up quickly.

### How fast can Harry’s deliver?
In many areas, we can be at your door within 60 minutes. Delivery time depends on your location and when you order.

### How does pickup work?
When you are finished, request pickup by text, phone, or app. Harry’s picks up the coolers.

### How long can I keep the coolers?
You can keep the coolers for up to 12 hours. Need longer? You can add more time, and extra time is included with the Gold plan when requested.

### What information do I need when ordering?
Tell us your refrigerator size, how full it is, and where in San Diego County you want everything delivered.

### What if I do not know my refrigerator size?
Harry’s can help you find your refrigerator’s size in cubic feet using the model number or manufacturer label. If you are unsure, choose more room rather than risk not having enough.

## Clean your fridge, and keep food cold

How to move your food, use the coolers, handle dry ice, and clean the refrigerator while it is empty.

### Who cleans the refrigerator?
You do. Harry’s brings enough coolers and ice for your food, along with the supplies you need to clean the shelves, drawers, seals, walls, and sticky spots.

### What should I move first?
Start with frozen food and refrigerated foods that spoil quickly. Then move drinks, jars, sauces, firm produce, and other items. Keep the cooler lids closed as much as possible.

### Should refrigerated and frozen foods go together?
Keep them separate when possible. Refrigerated food goes into coolers with ice. Frozen food should go into the cooler with dry ice if you chose Silver or Gold.

### Does every order include dry ice?
No. Bronze includes regular ice but does not include dry ice. Silver and Gold include dry ice for frozen food.

### Can I put dry ice anywhere I want?
No. Dry ice is extremely cold—about −109°F (−78°C)—and can injure bare skin. Keep it in the cooler marked for dry ice, wear insulated gloves when handling it, keep it away from children, and make sure the area has plenty of fresh air.

### What should I clean while the refrigerator is empty?
Clean the shelves, drawers, inside walls, door bins, seals, handles, and any sticky spots. Let shelves and other removable parts dry before putting the food back.

### Should I wipe jars and packages before putting them back?
Yes, especially if they are sticky or dusty. A quick wipe helps keep the clean refrigerator from getting messy again right away. Don’t worry if the coolers get messy. We clean and sanitize them when they come back.

### What if the coolers get dirty?
That is fine. Jars, bottles, and food packages may leave sticky spots inside the coolers. Return them as they are. Harry’s cleans and sanitizes every cooler before it is used again.

### Does Harry’s guarantee that my food will stay safe?
No. We bring coolers and ice based on what you tell us about your fridge, but you still need to follow the instructions, keep the cooler lids closed, and use your judgment about whether food is safe to eat. If you are especially concerned about certain foods, the Gold plan lets you check the temperature of each cooler in the app.

### What if my refrigerator is packed or I am unsure everything will fit?
Tell us your fridge size and how full it is. If it is packed or you are unsure, size up so you have plenty of room.

## Kids Helping Safely

There are plenty of ways kids can help without creating extra work or safety problems.

### Can children help with refrigerator cleaning day?
Yes, with adult supervision and jobs that fit their age. Children should never handle dry ice, heavy coolers, sharp tools, cleaning products, or spoiled food.

### What are good jobs for children?
Children can sort unbreakable items, group snacks or lunch foods, read labels aloud, match containers with their lids, hand over towels, or help decide where everyday foods should go.

### Why include children?
Cleaning the refrigerator can teach children a few useful household habits: put similar foods together, clean spills before they get worse, and help take care of shared spaces.

### Can this help children understand food waste?
Yes. With an adult, children can help spot expired food, forgotten leftovers, and duplicate jars. The adult should decide what stays and what gets thrown away.

### Can this help with school lunches and family routines?
Yes. When you reload the refrigerator, you can put lunch foods, breakfast foods, snacks, and dinner ingredients into easy-to-find groups.

### How can I keep things calm with children nearby?
Give each child one simple job at a time. Adults should handle the coolers, dry ice, cleaning products, glass parts, and heavy items. The goal is to let children help, not to finish faster.

### Should children help clean the refrigerator surfaces?
Only if the job is safe and an adult is watching. For many children, wiping outside handles or sorting clean bins is a better choice than using cleaning sprays inside the refrigerator.

### What should adults handle themselves?
Adults should handle dry ice, raw meat packages, spoiled food, glass shelves, heavy cooler lids, anything electrical, and all cleaning products.

### How can children help put the food back?
They can group foods by how the family uses them: lunches together, breakfast foods together, sauces together, and snacks together. Adults should put away raw meat, dairy products, and anything else that needs extra care.

### Why is this good for the whole family?
Kids learn that cleaning the refrigerator is just a normal part of taking care of the house: keep the food cold, clean the fridge, put everything back, and make it easier to find.
