With deciduous shrubs, it's best to move them while they're dormant....so you should really wait until the late autumn. However, you might get away with it now by pruning it hard back (it's the right time to do that anyway!) Have the new planting hole ready, and dig round the shrub, then lift out as much of the rootball as you can - put it onto a sack or tarpaulin to move it, and replant it immediately. Make sure it gets watered well for the first year.

Good luck.
