关于外卖 和 打包 food for taking out

When people order some foods and would like to have them delivered to house, usually we say " take out ", which means 外卖 in Chinese. I am wondering if there are ohter words like "take out" that we can use to express 外卖。

Plus how native speakers usually say 打包 in English? (You neither have it delivered nor eat it at restaurant but just " pack up " and leave.)

Help me please

    take away = go to a restaurant and get the food yourself

    If the restaurant delivers the food we say: "We're having the food sent over."
