In the past, I've transferred everything over no problem. I washed out my sand and then added it in.

I've also helped with a transfer which included the sandbed and other than a few days of murky water, not much of a problem. A small amount of nitrite (treated with heavy dosing of Prime) and some phosphate, but the tank is mainly a fish only with a few softies. If its for a reef with lots of lps/sps, then transferring the sand (as is) is probably not a good idea.
