I have a small freezer that needs to be defrosted every 6 months or so, so we eat everything from it, then I defrost it, clean it and restock.

The fridge I do one shelf at a time periodically.

That sounds very organised and practical

Only cos if I don't do it the door doesn't close properly.

Yes. I used to have a small secondary freezer for bulk batch tomatoes etc Miss it. But yes, when it gets low, scrub, then mega stock up.
