A few years ago a friend gave me a few small cherry , oak and apple trees for my garden but as we were only building at the time i sowed them on a small patch of land nearby on the uncles site and they have really shot up. I now have to remove them as he will be laying out the garden of his new build and the trees are now really in the way and unfortunately they are in the way of all the proposed work.

Can they be moved safely at this time of the year?

I don't know what size they are etc but suppose you can use a tree spade, the hirers would probably also know if it's ok to uproot them now.
