Though, if you can, it is better to wait until autumn... otherwise you may lose all this years leaves.

Its Not very big about 14/18 inch the reason that it needs to be moved is to make way for a veg plot

You can do it now - I'm assuming its not very big, as you want to put it into a tub. Dig round it carefully, try not to break the roots, keep a good rootball around the main part. Water thoroughly and keep watered.
