A corny is about 9" diameter while a slim quarter is 11 1/8" diameter. Most ~5 cubic ft freezers that will hold 2 cornies should hold a corny and a slim quarter. I would make a cardboard cutout of each and take it with you to size it. Also keep in mind where you want to store your CO2 tank (external or internal).

Glad you got it sorted out! You must be forewarned, however, that kegged homebrew can be extremely addictive! Once you pull that first pint of goodness there is no turning back.
