Don't Forget to Empty Your Google Drive Trash 🗑

  • By default, files placed in Google Drive trash will be permanently deleted after 30 days, however, files located in your Google Drive trash will still consume storage space until they are permanently deleted.
  • To empty the Trash, click on Trash icon 🗑 on the right side of the page and choose "Empty Trash." Once emptied, your storage space used should decrease in about 24 hours depending on how much was deleted.
