Force storage deletion (developer account)

It may be because I deleted custom objects which had many records and then emptied the recycle bin, but the Storage page says Data Storage is full with custom objects which have been deleted days ago (and the recycle bin is empty).

The recommended way is to reach out to Tech Support to delete the storage, but that is not an option for developer accounts.

Any other way I can clear data storage?

HI ,
I think you will have to wait for the automated backend physical delete process to run for the org.

I'm afraid to say support is not extended for salesforce developer accounts.

Recommend you to upvote this idea https://ideas.salesforce.com/s/idea/a0B8W00000GdWbjUAF/increase-developer-edition-storage-to-5-or-10mb

If this information helps, please mark the answer as best. Thank you

Do you know how often is the automated backend physical delete process run? The recycle bin has been emptied a few days ago and storage it still not updated.

Checked but couldn't find any public-facing documentation for it...
