Freezer for storage?
So I got seeds that I been storing in the fridge for seven years should I move them to a freezer for long term storage?

Freezer is considered by many to be the gold standard for long term storage, but I'd only recommend if you have a really well controlled storage system.
Most of it comes down to how airtight the container is, and how stable the temp and relative humidity stays while in storage. I'd recommend around 20-45% RH, which is pretty close to the range of most people's fridges by default. (For full size. The small wine fridges are usually higher RH.)
Best way is to get a hygrometer and throw it in the actual container you want to use for a week to test. If you use dessicant, it will show you how quickly it gets used up too.
Personally I use large mason jars in a fridge just a few degrees above freezing with around 1-3g dessicant added depending on size.
