As an ex-processor we always tried to wash and hang the deer. When they came into my place we did our best to keep them off the floor. We were always cleaning. They would go into one cooler with the hide on then go to another one that was for skinned deer only. The deer usually hung wnywhere between 7-10 days. The cooler system will work fine for you

Skinned, quartered, covered with ice in a large chest not wrapped in anything with trimmings on top. Leave the drain plug open so meat does not sit in water. Add ice as necessary. Leave in there 3 to 5 days. I'm sure a few more days would be fine but we are not that patient.
Just one more of the many ways that work just fine.

Any opinions on putting a hog and deer in the same cooler with the ice?
