Freezer should definitely be on a dedicated 20 amp circuit.

Washer and dryer can share a 20 amp circuit, but a better arrangement is to put them on opposite legs of a three-wire circuit. (Each leg has a separate 20 amp circuit breaker.) The main advantage of the three-wire circuit is that when both appliance are running, each gets more voltage than it would get on a dedicated two-wire circuit. (This is because there is less current flowing through the neutral, which eliminates some of the voltage drop.)
