Default storing chipotles?

I live on the westcoast of Canada and all my chiles are kept in
plastic bags and stored in big ol' Rubbermaid containers with lids.
They in turn are kept in my pantry away from excessive heat and
although it does get cold, here they never seem to dry out too much.
Of course, they are never around that long.
