Purging All Unused or Dangling Images, Containers, Volumes, and Networks

docker system prune

To remove any stopped containers and all unused images (not just dangling images), add the -a flag to the command:

docker system prune -a

Removing Docker Images

Use the docker images command with the -a flag to locate the ID of the images you want to remove.

# list images
docker images -a

# remove 
docker rmi <Image ID or name> 

Remove dangling images

# list dangling images
docker images -f dangling=true

# remove
docker images purge

Remove all images

docker rmi $(docker images -a -q)

Removing Containers

# list
docker ps -a

# remove
docker rm <contaner ID or name>

Remove all exited containers

# list
docker ps -a -f status=exited

# remove
docker rm $(docker ps -a -f status=exited -q)

# remove all containers
docker rm $(docker ps -a -q)

Removing Volumes

# list 
docker volume ls

# remove
docker volume rm <volume name>

docker volume prune
