They ar'nt too big yet so I would simply dig around them the size of the
crown of the tree. Get as much of the roots with soil as you can
sensibly get and put them in shade.

To properly collect them I could go on about how you do it for collected
bonsai but have you a couple of years to go at the situation or just a
one off move?
