Take a good box and stuff the gaps with paper or bubble wraps so that the plants do not move around too much when you ‘re on the move.

There are some moving companies that are unable to transport the plants. In that scenario, it is best to keep them in a separate vehicle with you. Keeping them in separate vehicles is also good for the plants since one can regulate the temperature so that they are not damaged during the move and keep them happy.

If plants are smaller, place the root and dirt in the paper bag. This is better as compared to plastic bags as it allows the plants to breathe easily. If the plants are big, wrap the root in burlap so that everything sticks together. Keep watering the plants time to time if it is too hot.

As you move, keep the plants in shade for some time as some plants are really sensitive. They can get damaged with the temperature changes. Shift to the new home and replant everything as soon as possible. It takes some time for the plants to adjust with the new soil after you plant them again.
