Hello,
I have an ice cream shop and 3 large deep freezes. Half way through
the week some freezers are empty. Am i able to turn them off for a
week until the next delivery without hurting them?

It won't the running of it.

But it might start to smell a little funky inside.

Also depends on what type of refrigeration unit it/they are -- if just
a "standard" self-standing freezer, no problem. If, otoh, they're
part of a central ammonia chiller system or similar, not so easy,
necessarily.

Right after the delivery, are all three of them full?

Why not? Just turn them back on well prior to next delivery.
Also, are you aware that is better to keep freezers as full as possible?
It is. Suggest you call the mfg.
