If you are moving bulbs that have already sprung up, as long as you get up as much of the surrounding soil and roots when digging them up, they should be fine. It may also help to have planting holes pre-dug in the new location (with similar growing conditions) so you can replant your bulbs as soon as possible after digging them up.
