fuchsia replanting

novice green fingers

I've dug up some well established fuchsia and want to relocate them. I was surprised to find such tubular roots that are enormous!  Can I cut the roots off to a more modest length or do I dig a hole to accommodate the roots.  Any other tips for replanting would be welcome.

Thanks

If they're hardy fuchsia they'll take a bit of root pruning. Just cut back hard after moving feed and mulch.
