File System Task is the tool you want. A Move Directory is the same as a Rename.

Example

Configure it as such. I prefer variables as it makes my packages cleaner

enter image description here

You could of course get the same results by running an Execute Task command and using the rename command

Renames a file or files.

RENAME [drive:][path]filename1 filename2. REN [drive:][path]filename1 filename2.

Note that you cannot specify a new drive or path for your destination file.

Finally, if you just like making things hard, you could use a Script Task and leverage the System.IO.Directory's Move method but on behalf of everyone who has to maintain novel approaches to solving problems, just use the File System Task
