Still cut all the canes that have fruited down to the gound, and just take the tops off any new canes - to help with the shock of moving. If you cut all the new growth off you'll maybe not get any fruit next year :( If it were me I wouldn't separate to individual canes, perhaps split your clumps into 2  ;)

It is better to move them during their dormant period.

Yes - wait until autumn when the sap levels fall. Keep the best canes from the clumps, remove the weakest ones, then see what space you have to fill re- separating clumps of canes or not. I'd not divide them too much as has been said, but it depends on the size of the clump..
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.
