    Acer, can I move it?

    You can cut half the roots back now. I'd not like to comment regarding the pruning, sounds a bit drastic to me, but some pruning would be good before the move.

    Got to agree with @Sian in Belgium the support will never take the weight of a wisteria. The archway you show would be much better.

    Stag Horn Tree

    Usually in my experience, if the leaves fall naturally, the plant is still alive. If they shrivel and stay attached the wood is dead.
