Get Dr. Tim's "One and Only" to help minimize cycling effects. If this involves a move into a new living space then get a lot of 5 gallon buckets and maybe some smaller Brute trash cans for transport. Try to have some saltwater mixed and ready to go just in case anything goes wrong.
I have switched tanks but made sure that all water parameters were as close as possible. Sounds like your water swap is a good step in the right direction. I would think you are changing lights too? This may also stress corals if the new light is more or less intense than in the old tank.
