Hi @plsimpson59, thanks for messaging the Community!

 

You can check the total amount of quota on your account here to see how much you're using from your total.

 

If you need to delete files from your account, you can do it online and via your computer from the Dropbox folder, if the Dropbox desktop application is installed and syncing.

 

If you need any more details, feel free to message back!
