## How to delete a VPC

You can only delete VPCs that do not contain any Private Networks or IPAM reserved IPs.

1. Click **VPC** in the **Network** section of the [Scaleway console](https://console.scaleway.com/organization) side menu. A listing of your VPCs displays.

2. Use the **region selector** at the top of the page to filter for the region of the VPC you want to delete.

3. Click <Icon name="more" /> next to the VPC you want to delete, and select **Delete** from the drop-down menu.

3. Type **DELETE** in the box to confirm, then click **Delete VPC**.
