There was a huge moth in my cousins house and we caught it, we were going to let it go in the morning, and it laid eggs in the container, so i took the top off and i put it outside, but the eggs and moth are still in it, and the moth won't leave it. so what should i do?

Find out what kind of moth it is and then find out the food source for it's larva. If you caught it at your cousins and it laid eggs in the cage then chances are the host plant is in your cousin's yard or somewhere near by. Anyhow, after you've identified the moth and the host plant just leave the open cage next to the host plant so the caterpillars will have food when they emerge. I wouldn't try to move the eggs because they may get damaged.
