Go to settings: select mail contacts calendars. Here go to G-mail. Go in and turn off the choice to archive items. Now when you go back to your G-mail messages you will see a delete button. Hope this helps

There may be another way that I'm not aware of, but this is what I do. I choose Move. I am then presented with a list of folders. I double tap on trash. And that's where it goes. Later on, when I want to delete the trash in the Trash folder. I go to page that says Mailboxes as it's heading. I swipe right until I hear it say "Accounts Heading." I then double tap on the account I am looking for. I double tap on the trash folder and it opens. On the upper right of the phone, there is now an edit button. I double tap this. Once I do that, there is a "delete all" button on the bottom left of the phone. I double tap that and all trash is gone. Like I said, there may be a better way. If so, I hope to also learn. But this is how I handle gmail.
