I have never owned a forum but I think when you make backup of database, it will save everything (like members signatures, the links where avatars are hosted). The only problem I can see is the avatars which you host on your server. May be download all these avatars from old host too before the transfer. It may be more complicated than that but thats the most easy solution I can think off.
Alternatively, you can hire some professional who is experienced in transferring vB and PhpBB forums.
