Lol this brings back some memories for me .... I had a fridge freezer in my laundry I would keep mice and rats in the top .... For weeks and weeks I had been smelling this gawd awful smell I couldn't work out what it was ... I thought it may have been back draft from the septic or something ....So any way weeks and weeks went by before I came to notice that the fridge freezer in the laundry was unplugged .... Oh my gosh the fridge part was fine as that for the most part was unused but to store soft drinks in .... but GOSH when i opened the freezer i was running for the back door for air .... there was me trying to clean out liquidized mice and rats in the laundry myself being quite short more or less had to get my head in there to be able to reach lol doing it running thought the house with triple bagged freezer content just thinking of it makes me want to vomit it's a smell you never EVER never forget
Oh yuck, i'd take it outside & get your room mate to open the freezer door while you blast it with a hose. Have your otto bin, garbage bags & a shovel ready to scoop up the contents & dump it in a garbabe bag.
I'd then coat the entire inside with a paste of baking soda & lemon juice & leave it overnight before hosing it out again 24hrs later. Then coat the whole thing again in the paste & start scrubbing. If you do that then wipe it all out with vanilla fridge spray it will be fine & yes I have done this before:lol:

ROFL ,,
After 20 years in the pest control industry I still see people who forget or by accident spoil a fridge of food
ok to fix this and return your fridge to service this is what you do.
you will need 1 pair of good rubber gloves
Hot soapy water
Disinfectant ( pine'O'Clean is ok )
good scrubbing brush and sponge
1 bottle of talcum powder ( Baby powder )
2 Lemons
1 knife
1 hair dryer
1 slice of bread
1 bottle of baking powder
put on the gloves and take the fridge outside as it will stink to high hell
open up the fridge and get rid of the entire continence ice trays can be cleaned later
with the soapy water clean all surfaces inside and out, including seals !
repeat the process with hot clean water with the disinfectant in it.
you may need to do these steps twice to really to cut the smell down.
with the talcum powder and hair dryer you dust and blow the talc over and around the motor area
as cockroaches love to lay eggs there, take ya time in this process as coverage is the key.
with the lemons you slice one in to 4 quarters and gently rub over the inside of the fridge surface and around seal.
leave it for a hour to dry then wipe over with hot water and disinfectant.
the last lemon cut in quarters and place these pices in the fridge and put the fridge out side in the sun for a day.
remove the lemon and if needed wipe the inside of the fridge again with hot water with disinfectant.
next fully coat the bread with the baking powder ( all over it ),
cut it into 4 pieces and place two by the motor ( NOT on the motor )
place the other two pieces of bread on the floor either side of the fridge at the back when it's in place.
remover the bread after 1 week, you can also place a small bowl of Bi-carb in the bottom of the fridge to absorb left over odor.
now you can reclaim ya fridge by filling it with beer lol
remember cockroaches can be a real bugger to get rid of at any time
but this is the best Non-toxic method I know.

get something to eat >.<
Certainly did defrost to mush, not all of them, the ones lower down had barely bloated, but the 'mush juice' trickled down over everything (chest freezer). Not all would have been frozen as friday was our big cull day and so prob close to 500 would have been 'warm and fresh'. I am only assuming that the lid was propped open by the cord from friday, it could have been earlier and no one noticed - we tended to just flip the lid and chuck the cull bags in.

We had one out the back that we used to keep chicken necks and dog mince in, went away for a few days and forgot about the stuff that was in it, and the dogs chewed through the power cord, end result was a fridge full of maggots and it reeked!!! We did exactly what you said...
