If you want to move your entire working copy, just move it in the file system.

If you want to move a folder within the working copy and later commit the move, right click on the folder, pick TortoiseSVN->Rename.

Change YourFolder to something like ..\..\NewFolder\AnotherFolder\YourFolder. Note that ..\..\NewFolder\AnotherFolder\ must exist before the operation.

Another way to move files and folders from TortoiseSVN is to use the Repository browser. There you can easily drag'n drop them to new locations. The files are moved in the remote svn repository. You need to update your working copy to get the movements locally.

You can just copy your working folder outside of Tortoise-svn (with standard copy operation). After that Tortoise will work with your new location.

You can really clean up a lot in your working copy by using the right drag functionality in your explorer. Check the link below for some features you most likely never knew about:
