I've done the same, Jorge, and it works great. Deleting all of the other columns, including the headers, is wise! The metadata in the items moves wigh the item.

I delete all columns from that CSV file except for the ID and collection columns. 4- I use one or two of those items as a test, and delete the rest of the rows. 5- In those test rows (records), I change the collection number to the new collection in the corresponding column. 6- If I'm satisfied with the result, I continue with the remaining items. 7- I delete the original collection, which should now be empty. This is just one method I'm sharing with you. I'm not sure it's the best, but it's what I've used. I hope it helps.
