Hi slartismum,
I have moved your post to the facility thread as any of your friends can work your facilities not just neighbours.
The only way to empty them and also keep the products being made or stocked, is for the work in them to be completed, then you will need to store what's done and cash out the service facilities before you move them.
However, this is important....if you are participating in the NCC you must NOT move those facilities to other farms as that will force you to abandon the contest for the rest of the week and there is no way to get you back into it, you would have to wait until next week to enter again.
The safest method is just to let them all get emptied by your friends working them, then it won't matter if a mistake is made later with changing filters in the Facility Manager and you won't have to remember to change the filters back after you have moved them to another farm. Emptying the facilities will go faster the more friends you have that can work them until all the production is completed, you have stored and cashed out, but remember, don't store or move the NCC facilities, those will have to wait until the contest is over if you don't want to abandon it.
If you are wanting to keep the facilities active on the other farms then there are a couple of other ways to do it as long as you own all of the facility tools and those tools are still all in your item storage. I will just list the easier one of the 2 that I can think of as the other one is more time consuming.
Set the Location in the facility manager to a Group of Farms so that you only harvest/start/load those farms and leave it set that way until the facilities are emptied. You want check marks added for the farms you want worked and make sure that the farm you want emptied doesn't have a check mark, then click the green check mark to save those changes.
You would then have to manually harvest those animal sheds on that farm and and work any NCC facilities either manually or from the NCC manager.
You also would have to remember not to change the Facility Manager Location
until you've moved them or you will end up with them started and loaded again.
Once you've moved the facilities you can change the Location in the facility manager back to All Farms again.
