Any tricks to rapidly cool refrigerator?

I currently store my trailer at my house and the day before we head out camping i plug in the trailer and turn on the fridge using shore power. I put a frozen 1 gallon water jug in the fridge and a frozen 1 liter water bottle in the freezer and both are ready the next morning for food.

The question I have in response would be - WHY are you bothering with all this? :h I've owned a number of trailers with a number of different gas absorption fridges and although the smaller 3-way versions commonly found in popup trailers can take quite awhile to cool any larger 6 cu ft 2-way fridge / freezer model I've owned begins to cool immediately and has always been cooled enough within just a few short hours that I can begin loading food into it. My current fridge is a Dometic DM2652 and if I turn it on at say 8am on the day we're leaving to head out on a camping trip it will have noticeably cooled by 10am and be totally ready for use no later than noon ... how much quicker than that do you need your fridge to cool?! If it doesn't I'd suggest there's something amiss with the unit you have.

I wish my refrigerator would cool down this quickly. I was a first time tt owner last year. My Atwood refrigerator took about 24 hours to cool down each trip before it was safe to put food in. I tried filling it with cold food to cool it down but it did not cool down any faster. I plugged my tt in two days before each trip just to get the refrigerator ready. I have a new tt now and I do not know yet how fast it will cool down.
