whole shebang

All of it

The whole shebang is everything involved in a situation or undertaking—the entirety, the complete package.

The word shebang rarely appears without whole: We're selling the house, the cars, the furniture—the whole shebang.

It emphasizes totality, often with a sense of throwing in every last thing.
