Types of Freezers

These offer options typically with adjustable shelving, and allow less installation room than a chest freezer. Does offer easy organization and at a quick glance you can see what you have, though these do offer slightly smaller usable space than the chest freezer.
Chest Freezer
Offers great storage capacity for large and odd sized items. Downside of these is the stacking type of organization as well as the constant bending to see and grab what you have.
