Help! Need to move compost, but when?

Hi

I need to replace & repair my compost bins but need advice on when the best time of year to do this is.

I avoided last summer because we have Grass Snakes in the garden & I am sure that they nest there. Am I likely to disturb hybernating creatures if I do it now? There are also plenty of Slow Worms and a family of mice often spotted there in the summer. An Adder was also seen in the garden last summer. Pond is close by so there could be frogs & toads living there too!?

I would hate to stick my fork through anything!

Thanks for your help.

Mark
