Delete or remove a listing

You can either remove a listing from your Google Places account, or remove a listing from Google Maps. For more information, follow the instructions below.

Remove a listing from Google Maps or Google Places account

Under the “Actions” column for the listing you wish to remove, click Delete. From there you can choose between two options:

• Remove this listing from my Google Places Account: If you associated a listing with your account by mistake, you can remove it from your account by selecting this option. Verification isn't necessary. This listing may continue to display on Google, but it will no longer be associated with your account.


• Remove this listing from Google Maps: This will remove your owner-verified business listing from Google Maps. Some users might select this option if the business no longer exists or has moved. The listing will remain in your Google Places account, in case you’d like to add it again later.


• Please note: This only applies to listings that you have verified and added to your account.

Once you have made your selection, click Save Changes. If you chose to remove your listing from Google Maps, this should take place within a few hours.

Delete your unverified listing on Google Maps

In some cases, you may find your business is listed on Maps and you’d like to delete it, but you have not verified the listing. We find that users may want to delete these listings because the information is wrong, or the business has moved or gone out of business. Though you didn’t list this location, this information may have been pulled from third-party sources such as the Yellow Pages or Info USA. The best way to remove these listings is to click the more link in the business’ listing and click the Report a problem link.
