Data Overage in Old Salesforce Org

I have an old salesforce org that I have kept alive with one license remaining. The org was previously used for an inventory system and has a lot of data storage taken up. This has caused some red flags recently at salesforce and I have been contacted to either purge the data or I will be charged. Can anyone help me get the data within means? I only need the information that is on the account and contact and Opportunity pages. And also needs to export all data from salesforce org.

Please help me how can I export all records and delete the records.

Hi,

You can first extract all the data from your respective objects in a CSV file through data loader.
After exprting all the data just copy the id field and create a new CSV file with only Id field.
Use this new CSV file to delete all records with data loader.

You can find help about data loader in link given below :

Let me know if anything is unclear to you or you need more information on this.

Thanks,
Abhishek

I have deleted all further data except Account , Addresses , Contacts, Opportunity. After Deletion of the data I calculate Current Data Storage Usage and It's around 1.6 GB and data usage show 2.6 GB.

How can I find remaining data and delete that data?
