# Manually Clean Terraform Instances on AWS

> Manually remove leftover AWS resources when Terraform destroy fails during Blockscout Ansible deployment, including S3, DynamoDB, and EC2 cleanup.

<Warning>
  If the deployment process was previously successful, you can run `bin/infra destroy`. Additionally, `bin/infra destroy_setup` will delete the DynamoDB table. [More information on destroying infrastructure is available here](/setup/deployment/ansible-deployment/destroying-provisioned-infrastructure).

  However, in circumstances that rely on insufficient AWS account rights, the deployment process may fail. In this case, `bin/infra destroy_setup` will not work.

  **Additionally, forgetting to clean resources can result in high AWS costs in a short period of time, so it's best to check that all resources have been removed.**
</Warning>

In order to completely manually remove Terraform deployment from AWS you need to clear all related instances of the following services:

* S3
* CodeDeploy
* DynamoDB
* Route 53
* VPC
* RDS

### Removing S3 Buckets

1\) In the Find Services box, type in S3 and select **S3, Scalable Storage in the Cloud**.
