All I ever moved was basically a 75g FOWLR and that was across town, in late summer and I already had some water mixed and heater up at the new place.

Forget exactly but brought along something like 4-5g pails of the old water, added that to the tank then topped up with the fresh stuff. Fish was just in a pail and had the LR in those big tubs with some remaining tank water. Acclimatized everything before putting back into the tank.

Was planning on taking the top 1" of my DSB to reseed a new one but end up just going BB.

Though your move is relatively short, things sometimes go amiss. Might considered having a heater and PH readily available to drop into the buckets with your stock if things get delayed.
