Here I'm not asking the methods we can use to save seeds, but I'd like to know how YOU currently use to save your seeds for next year and the years beyond.

I save mainly vegetable seeds, some ornamental wild flower seeds and occasionally tree seeds, but rare.

As myself, I use the following storage methods:

1. Room storage, just for a couple of days for casual storage;

2. Zip bag in basement. Small zip inside one large zip bag. I use this to save large quantity of seeds from produce, like squash/pumpkin, etc.

3. Zip bag, large zip bag inside a large pickle jar in basement. I use this method to save some seeds smaller and more valuable to me, like tomato, pepper and beans.

4. Zip bag and jar inside a refrig. I save the seeds from the above 2) and 3) in refrig for seasonal storage. I separate them into warm and cold seasons.

5. Zip bag, jar inside freezer. Only for unopened seeds for long-term storage.

For my common seeds, I do not store them inside either refrig or freezer. I do not like having to wait for a day for the temp to stablize and open the jar or bag.
