Deleting files from desktop

I'm quite new to AS so bear with me.

I've been trying to write a script which will move all files and folders which should not be on the desktop onto another drive. For example, file 1 and 2 as well as 3 disk partitions and the trash must remain on the desktop and all else is to be moved to drive 2. When I try to run:

move folders of desktop to disk "Drive 2"
move document files in desktop to disk "Drive 2"

I get an error that the trash cannot be moved off the desktop. Also, while the files are copied the disk, the original remains on the desktop.

Any hints?
