You'd think the inside of a freezer is dry, but in reality, every time you open the freezer, a little bit of the air outside above it drops in. There's also humidity from the items being frozen. Then there's always the quality of the freezer's door seals and humidity in the room that the freezer resides in. Cooling comes from the coils in the walls. With a layer of frost/ice, the efficiency drops. The compressor has to run more to get the interior cold and this is hard on the unit. The cold has to move through the frost/ice to get to the food. So occasional defrosting helps a lot.
These type of freezers are more bulky than heavy. In my case, I keep my freezer on top of a cheap Harbor Freight moving dolly (the ones that appear to be made with 2x4s and four wheels) The freezer is in a room next to the garage. Once a year, I defrost it by unpacking the frozen stuff into coolers and then easily wheel the frost/ice clad freezer onto the driveway on a warm sunny day. Sometimes I use a plastic scraper to help on the sides. Regardless, between the heat and the direct sunlight, the frost/ice is melted in minutes (5-8). I use a dry towel to remove any water and then put everything back in place. Since the walls are not cold at that time, I let the freezer run for about ten minutes to get cool and then start swapping the food from coolers back into the freezer. Honestly, the whole process takes less than a half hour. If someone timed their defrost when there's little food in the freezer, they could make it even easier. I usually think about that each time but only AFTERWARDS!
