re potting from bigger to smaller?

I have a couple pepper plants that I have brought indoor for the winter. They are in my basement under a 600watt halide and have been doing great for the last month and half now. I had these peppers potted in a pretty big decorative pot on my deck all summer but now that they are inside I want to put them in something smaller. I haven't had them out of the soil since beginning of summer so I don't know how big the root system is and what I will be able to fit it into. I would like to put them in a 5gal bucket, if when I pull them out the roots are too much can I just trim them back with scissors to fit or would I be better off leaving them in they big pot?

they are in a 10gal pot now
