# volume prune
<!---MARKER_GEN_START-->
Remove unused local volumes
### Options
| Name | Type | Default | Description |
|:------------------------------|:---------|:--------|:---------------------------------------------------|
| [`-a`](#all), [`--all`](#all) | | | Remove all unused volumes, not just anonymous ones |
| [`--filter`](#filter) | `filter` | | Provide filter values (e.g. `label=<label>`) |

## Description
Remove all unused local volumes. Unused local volumes are those which are not
referenced by any containers. By default, it only removes anonymous volumes.
## Examples
```console
$ docker volume prune
WARNING! This will remove anonymous local volumes not used by at least one container.

Total reclaimed space: 36 B
```
### <a name="all"></a> Filtering (--all, -a)
Use the `--all` flag to prune both unused anonymous and named volumes.
### <a name="filter"></a> Filtering (--filter)
The filtering flag (`--filter`) format is of "key=value". If there is more
than one filter, then pass multiple flags (e.g., `--filter "foo=bar" --filter "bif=baz"`)
The currently supported filters are:
* label (`label=<key>`, `label=<key>=<value>`, `label!=<key>`, or `label!=<key>=<value>`) - only remove volumes with (or without, in case `label!=...` is used) the specified labels.
The `label` filter accepts two formats. One is the `label=...` (`label=<key>` or `label=<key>=<value>`),
which removes volumes with the specified labels. The other
format is the `label!=...` (`label!=<key>` or `label!=<key>=<value>`), which removes
volumes without the specified labels.
