You could always COPY FREEZE into a new table, then move any remaining
rows, and finally rename the tables. Should be a win if the majority of the
table is newly-imported data. Another thing you might look at is increasing
your three week forced freeze window by adjusting params and/or decreasing
the number of transactions your cluster is using. (granted, still the same
overall write volume). You could also do manual vacuum freezes at a time
better for you (since you mention autovac is doing this at
unpredictable times).

Cheers,
Greg
