Don’t pull it up, get your pot or whole ready with some fresh soil in the bottom. Then place one hand on the bottom of the “bucket” and the other on the top of the dirt (caressing the plant between your middle and ring fingers with your palm flat on the dirt). Turn it over and have a friend pull the “bucket” up, you should be left with your tree upside while holing the root mass. After the “bucket” has been removed, gently place the root mass in to the whole or “bucket” you’ve prepared. Be sure to water once it’s filled to insure there are no air pockets.
Good luck.

That's gonna be hard to transplant but listen to peace&love your gonna need 2 people for this transplanting job... Next time start them in styro foam cups then transplant them to 5 gallon buckets... Much much easier :)

if you can't get someone to help transplant.... you could double pot it.

the only thing I'd add would be for you to beat the rootball up with a shovel. get the roots nice and loose, dont be gentle break that shit up otherwise they are just gonna spiral like they already are.
