See which folders and file types consume the most storage on your cPanel account.

The Disk Usage tool shows how your account storage is distributed so you can free space before hitting plan limits.

View disk usage

Common space consumers

  • Email — large mailboxes and spam folders.
  • Backups — old backup files stored in your home directory.
  • Logs — access and error logs in logs or tmp.
  • Uploads — media libraries in WordPress or other CMS platforms.

Free up space

Delete unnecessary backups, empty email trash folders, remove unused installations, and clear old log files. Always back up before deleting files you are unsure about.
