The easiest way to move a file in Finder using VoiceOver is to focus on it and choose Edit > Copy, or press Command-C. Then, open the folder you want to put the file and choose Edit > Paste (or press Command-V) to copy the file, or press Command-Option-V to move it.

Hi, to drag and drop an item using VO in Sonoma 14.1.1 press the VO key plus the comma key to mark the item for dragging, put the focus on the window where you want to drop the item and press VO key plus period or the full stop key. In most of the cases where drag and drop is required Copy and paste does work in Sonoma 14.1.1. To copy press command key plus C and to paste press Command key plus V. Hoep this helps.
