## NAME
podman\-volume\-rm - Remove one or more volumes
## SYNOPSIS
**podman volume rm** [*options*] *volume* [...]
## DESCRIPTION
Removes one or more volumes. Only volumes that are not being used are removed.
If a volume is being used by a container, an error is returned unless the **--force**
flag is being used. To remove all volumes, use the **--all** flag.
Volumes can be removed individually by providing their full name or a unique partial name.
## OPTIONS
#### **--all**, **-a**
Remove all volumes.
#### **--force**, **-f**
Remove a volume by force.
If it is being used by containers, the containers are removed first.
#### **--help**
Print usage statement
#### **--time**, **-t**=*seconds*
Seconds to wait before forcibly stopping running containers that are using the specified volume. The --force option must be specified to use the --time option. Use -1 for infinite wait.
## EXAMPLES
Remove multiple specified volumes.
```
$ podman volume rm myvol1 myvol2
```
Remove all volumes.
```
$ podman volume rm --all
```
Remove the specified volume even if it is in use. Note, this removes all containers using the volume.
```
$ podman volume rm --force myvol
```
## Exit Status
**0** All specified volumes removed
**1** One of the specified volumes did not exist, and no other failures
**2** One of the specified volumes is being used by a container
**125** The command fails for any other reason
