I've been freezing cookie dough balls for years, as I love to make enormous batches of cookie dough. My freezer rarely has enough room in the right shape for a cookie sheet, though, so I use rectangular plastic containers (Rubbermaid, Tupperware, disposables,, any kind). I line the bottom with waxed paper, fill it with dough balls, then another sheet of waxed paper, another layer of dough balls, and so on. They can stay in there indefinitely, but I usually transfer them to a freezer bag, and label the bag with the baking instructions. I can almost always find space for the containers, and don't have to worry about my cookies picking up odors, either. (And, of course, I use KA Flour!)
