| ## 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. |
| Are you sure you want to continue? [y/N] y |

| |
| 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. |
