Trapdoor spider relocate?

Events

Description

I have to redo the stairs on the side of my house and I have a lot of really cool/beautiful red trapdoor spiders living around there. Are there any spider lovers with recommendations on relocating them; or that might want to take them and home or release them? When I move the bricks there's at least 10-15 so I know I'm going to come across a bunch. Definitely red Antrodiaetus pacificus. I've read that they can bite if handled carelessly and I feel like hammering stuff around them is pretty careless. I don't want to bother or be bothered by our tiny tarantula friends. I know this is silly to some people. Please don't flag. I've been living here 2 years and watching them the whole time. They're really cool. I just want them to move without killing them or getting bit.
