Moving help?

Tuesday I am moving three hours away. I have 10 baby ball pythons and a few adults. I have each individual tubs for them. When is the best time to move them from their enclosures into the tubs for the move? I have never moved with reptiles before.

How are they housed currently? Are you still needing to break down all the enclosures for the same day?
What size tubs are they traveling in?
How long after arrival will they need to wait to be housed properly?

I’ve had to keep BPs temporarily in a climate controlled area in bags for 4 days because of termite extermination in my home. As long as they’re properly kept and have had access to clean water up to and immediately after bagging they should be okay.

If the tubs are of a large enough size where the snakes can have access to water and a regulated heat pad then it shouldn’t matter as long as they are set up in a more permanent enclosure at some point.
