Those first two responses are wrong. that 3 day notice to quit or move out is not an eviction. The landlord has to file legal papers with the county clerk of courts, then hire a process server to serve you the papers which has a court date. Where I'm from that initial date, you don't see a judge, but a court commissioner to see if there can be some sort of mutual agreement. If not they set up a second court date, where you actually go before a judge. This is where the Judge issued a writ of restitution. After you have that writ, the landlord has to get a letter of Intent from an authorized moving company. Then take the writ and the letter of intent, keys to the premises, and a processing fee.
Then the Sheriff's office will contact the moving company and tell them when they, the Sheriff's office, will excute the eviction. As a landlord that has been through this a few times, I'm not there during the time the moving company is packing up the tenant's property while the Sheriff's deputies oversee everything. I will go there to get the door locks, so they can be rekeyed, so that after the sheriff's are done and everything is packed up, I can reinstall the locks so the tenant cannot reenter the premise.
The landlord isn't allowed to pack anything up, that is what the moving company is for.

The way this usually works is that they give you three days notice that if you don't pay in those three days, they will begin the eviction process. The 3 days is not notice that you will be evicted in 3 days, it is notice that they will file to have you evicted in three days.
After those three days, the landlord goes and files to have you evicted. The usual amount of notice of actual eviction they have to give is 30 days. It often takes longer than that to evict you and you can fight back and make it take even longer. Once they begin the eviction process, you can live their for free.
To recap:
You don't pay.
Landlord says pay in 3 days or I will file paperwork to evict you.
You still don't pay.
Landlord files paperwork and tells you to get out in so many days (30).
You still don't pay, but you get all your belongings packed and anything valuable out.
The courts decide the landlord can evict you.
You have to get out.
Go to your landlord and tell them they have the paperwork you need to be able to pay them.

Land lord can just come with the sheriff and put your stuff out in the street if you're not there and if you are home the sheriff will stay and watch you get your stuff out. That would be a good time to mention that they have stuff of yours that you would like returned also.

They have to get the Sheriff. Stay put, but getter be ready to leave when the Sherrif comes, or he'll throw all your stuff out on the front lawn.
