cp -rp SRC DEST && rm [-rf] SRC is a single line.

So cp -r --preserve=all is the best I can get?

there is no AFAIK, only option is using rsync with --remove-source-files option to delete files only but this will not delete directory itself, so you need do directory deletion too after that.

Yes, this is what cp does, you need do a deletion after copy.
