Winter care for stack-a-pot strawberry tower

Hello
my question is about preparing my stack pots for winter so the strawberries in them do not die. I know they don't have much protection as they would in the soil. I don't have a place to move the towers to so they have to remain outside. I though about it and so far I came up with
1. covering them in blankets
2. covering them in tarp or bubble wrap
3. first plastic them blanket
4. first blanket then plastic.
Which option do you think would work better? Also, before covering them, what should the soil moisture level, average or mostly on the dry side? Should I water it during the winter?

Do you know what zone you are in? I would suggest including that in this discussion. Without it, it's not possible to know if others' experiences are relevant to your location.
