I would just remove the soil from both the iris and daylilies wrap them in dry newspaper for the move. When you get to your new place the daylilies in a bucket of water which you change daily to rehydrate them until you get them planted also cut the scapes back and trim the foliage to help prevent shock to the plants. Iris are tough plants just replant them when you have time, I would also trim back the iris if they have long foliage.
If you want to be happy for a lifetime plant a garden!
Faith is the postage stamp on our prayers!
