Relocating a hive

I’m relocating a colony a short distance (200’) that is 6 frames of bees in a 10 frame swarm trap. I’m taking it about 10 miles away. How long should I wait before I bring it back. I’ve heard everything from 3 days to 6 weeks. I don’t think I have 6 weeks before they are overcrowded.
