Q. My siblings want to interchange some family pictures from our grandfathers that we place as decorations in our sukkos. (We give them ours and take theirs). Is that permitted during Chol Hamoed?
A. Poskim disagree if one can remove from the sukka decorations that will not be used anymore during sukkos, without any need or reason. (Shoel Umeshiv 3: 28, Lehoros Nossan 7: 48-49).
However, they permit placing them in another sukka (Tzitz Eliezer 13: 67, see Piskei Teshuvos 638: 6).
Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is similar.
