We understand that sometimes you may need to delete a site from our systems. Removing a site is just as easy as adding a site.

 
 Please Note:  Deleting a site will completely remove the site and all backups on our end and they will not be able to be recovered. We strongly advise [downloading a backup of your site](https://pressable.com/knowledgebase/accessing-backups/#how-to-access-backups) before deleting it.

To delete a site, you must first log into your [My.Pressable.com Dashboard](https://my.pressable.com) and select the site you want to delete by locating the site and clicking on the **Settings** button or by clicking on the site name (example **pressable-test** in the image below):

Once you are in the dashboard for your site, click the **ellipsis** (three dots) icon to view additional site actions. Then click the **Delete Site** button as shown below:

You will then see a pop-up to confirm the deletion, as shown below. Once you enter the site name, you can click on the **Delete** button to proceed with the deletion.

[Collaborators](https://pressable.com/knowledgebase/how-do-i-add-a-collaborator-guest-account-to-my-site/) will not see that option in their view unless they have been granted the [Delete Site permission](https://pressable.com/knowledgebase/how-do-i-add-a-collaborator-guest-account-to-my-site/#collaborator-access-and-permissions).
