    the iPhone doesn't really have a trash. What is the exact message you see when you say it "Says to delete trash".

     

    Some apps have a trash like function, for example in Photos when you delete a photo it won't actually delete for 30 days, here you can force the delete photos to be removed by going to Albums > Recently Deleted > Select > Delete all. You an also delete the trash folder in the Mail.
