My venting is located at the rear of the dryer and I would like it moved to the side.

Put an elbow on the dryer vent, that will direct it to the side.

some models do have a knockout on the side of the dryer
i recommend hard pipe or flexible aluminum
Homo-depot, Lowe's sells 30 guage metal duct
i do advise you not to use accordion style venting since this can catch lint and cause a fire

yes you can vent out the side. their are popouts you take out of the sides, you may have to take shroud of the dryer to get at it,i did that to mine, vented i t out the side, that way i got dryer closer to the wall

I HAVE NOT SEEN ANY RESIDENTIAL DRYERS WITH SIDE VENTING .YOU CAN INSTALL A 90 DEGREE ELBOW AND VENT IT AROUND THE SIDE.BUT MAKE SURE TO CHECK THE PIPE EVERY NOW AND THEN .BECAUSE WHEN YOU INSTALL ELBOWS IT CREATES RESTRICTIONS TO THE AIR FLOW THUS CAUSING BLOCKAGES
