Erase pending

Trying to erase an iPad Pro to return as a trade on a new iPad Air. It seems to be completely erased and back to factory setting but all my other devices say “erase pending”. I’ve tried 3 times. It’s been 2 days and it still says pending. What am I doing wrong? I don’t want to send it until I’m certain that all is erased.

iPad Pro 11-inch Wi-Fi, Cellular

If you’ve gone through the following list, including having done the factory reset back to the Welcome to iPad setup stuff, and particularly having removed the device from your Apple ID and from your trusted list, ship it.
