You don't want to wash them and then put them in the fridge, as introducing excessive moisture will accelerate the spoiling process. Collards will keep for up to five days, depending on how fresh they were when you bought them. Anything you buy locally from a farmers market will often keep for twice that length of time. To freeze, blanch them first, which sounds fancy but just means you simply plunge the greens into boiling water for 3 minutes.
Then, transfer them to ice-cold water to stop the cooking process. Drain and pat dry. Chop and store the greens in a resealable plastic bag in the freezer for up to 12 months. Nothing's stopping you from freezing raw collards, but blanching will preserve the quality and nutrition of the veggie; it halts the enzymes that could potentially lead to spoilage, once frozen.
