What should I do if my iCloud storage is full?

I am unable to backup my phone or my iPad. I have purchased a new iPad. How do I go about backing up the old one so I can start the new one?

Depending upon where you are this should be no issue:

Get temporary iCloud storage when you buy a new iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


If storage space is going to be an ongoing issue, either reduce your need or subscribe to more.

Upgrade to iCloud+ - Apple Support

iCloud+ plans and pricing - Apple Support


From: How to switch to a different subscription plan - Apple Support

Change to a different plan using an iPad or iPhone:

1. Open the Settings app. 

2. Tap your name, then tap Subscriptions.

3. Tap the name of the subscription that you want to change.

4. Tap See All Plans, then follow the onscreen instructions to complete your purchase.
