move out

Pack and go

Move out means to leave a residence, typically permanently, taking one's belongings: We're moving out at the end of the month.

It implies vacating—ending one's occupancy of a place.

In military contexts, to move out is to depart or advance: The troops moved out at dawn.

The opposite of move in.
