Our power has been out since 6:30, and I have no idea when our power will return. We have a relatively new fridge (2013), so how long do u think food will last in the fridge/freezer until we should throw it out?

On a different note, it seems this happens quite a bit now that we're OEC customers (Yukon area) as opposed to OG&E.

The key is to minimize opening the door. If you don't let the cool out it can go a good day or more before anything really spoils.
