digging up bulbs

Having work done to the house, which necessitated digging up lily, crocus and tulip bulbs. I would like to store in refrigerator and then replant. I seem to remember my grandmother doing this and she planted right before a freeze. Will this work?

You could go ahead and plant them in your new location now. Moving them now most likely will effect your flower output next spring.
