Moving bees: (photo by Bartek Majewski)
Step 2: Screen the entrance with a hardware clothe (must be smaller than 8 mesh), so bees can still ventilate but not escape. Best to use a staple gun for this purpose. The screen shown here is not perfect: it is better that the screen be the exact length as the hive width so no wrapping around is needed, which can creat leaking spaces (see the grass here?).
Step 3: to make sure the hivebodies do not shift during travel, you can use the hive staples to fix the two hivebodies together. Again, this is usually done on the side.
