# Trash

When you [delete assets](/docs/delete-assets), they are moved to the Trash folder. They stay there until their purge date, and until then you can [restore them](/docs/restore-an-asset-from-trash). If this option is enabled, administrators can right-click the Trash and select **Empty trash** to delete everything in it straight away.
