DELETING BUCKETS

Creating and deleting buckets:

You can delete an empty bucket, and when you're using the AWS Management Console, you can delete a bucket that contains objects. If you delete a bucket that contains objects, all the objects in the bucket are permanently deleted.
When you delete a bucket with versioning enabled, all versions of all the objects in the bucket are permanently deleted.
Before deleting a bucket, consider the following:

·         Bucket names are unique. If you delete a bucket, another AWS user can use the name.
·         When you delete a bucket that contains objects, all the objects in the bucket are permanently deleted, including objects that transitioned to the Amazon S3 Glacier storage class.
·         If the bucket hosts a static website, and you created and configured an Amazon Route 53 hosted zone as described in create and configure Amazon Route 53 Hosted Zone: You must clean up the Route 53 hosted zone settings that are related to the bucket as described in delete the Route 53 hosted Zone.
·         If the bucket receives log data from ElasticLoad Balancing (ELB): We counsel that you stop the liberation of ELB logs to the bucket before deleting it. After you delete the bucket, if another user creates a bucket using the similar name, your log data could potentially be delivered to that bucket. For information about ELB access logs, see Access Logs in the User Guide for Classic Load Balancers and 

Important
If you want to continue to use the same bucket name, don't delete the bucket. We recommend that you empty the bucket and keep it. After a bucket is deleted, the name becomes available to reuse, but the name might not be available for you to reuse for various reasons. For example, it might take some time before the name can be reused, and some other account could create a bucket with that name before you do.
