Question Transplanting in Florida

Hello all, I am a brand new member, looking for information on (hopefully) transplanting several plants. We live on the Gulf coast of Florida, and are in a house that has several small palms, a large-ish (~7') plumeria, a medium sized palm (sago? not sure) and some other tropical landscape plants that we would like to move away from the walls of the house and into a planting bed in the front yard to create an attractive grouping that would look better and provide privacy, while also cutting down on bugs getting in. I could send/post photos if anyone is willing to help me identify the various plants. I'm wondering if there is a good/bad time to move these plants, how hard it would be to move the palm (~8' high) and the plumeria, and whether some of this would be better left to a professional. Also we would welcome suggestions on managable-sized banana trees, esp those with the little yummy fruit. (Please forgive my banana ignorance... we are new to Florida!) Thanks in advance for any advice!
