Hi and welcome to HC!

I have no idea what a tiny tales cage is but it doesn't sound exciting.
Are you able to mesh the lid of the bin to give her enough ventilation and keep her safe?
I think as long as you move all her old substrate and things over then set it up in a similar layout she should be alright until you get the aquarium, set it up and make a meshed lid for it. I'd try and keep the nest and hoard intact as much as possible when taking them out.

I've moved all our hamsters at some point and they may go underground for a couple of days after moving and then its important to leave them alone to settle into their new environment but usually they enjoy more space and more things to explore.

I must admit that i'm not familiar with chinese hamsters because i've never had one.
