Answer 1

Snow drops do not store well and should be planted soon after lifting. If that is not possible, I recommend doing as you suggested and planting them in containers so they do not dry out. When you plant them in your new home, disturb them as little as possible, sliding the potting soil and all into the new planting hole.
