clearouts
Wholesale getting rid
Clearouts are acts of removing unwanted items or people from a space.
A clearout of a garage means hauling away accumulated junk; a clearout at a company means laying off staff.
In British football, a clearout is a defensive kick that sends the ball far from the goal.
The term implies decisive, thorough removal: We need a proper clearout before the move.
