I find that 'solid' ice lasts longer when we transfer food to the ice chest.
I fill a zip-lock bag with water, zip it closed and put it in the house freezer. It does not melt as fast as loose ice and then I can put it back in the freezer to refreeze for the next 'transfer of food from the house to the coach'.
I also have the small ice packs to keep in the freezer so that the freezer doesn't change temp too much during defrosting.
