I'm assuming you're talking about some individual VPC that you're paying for and not using. If you don't do anything with it in a week then just shut it down after downloading a disk image.
It's a sporadically active server for friends and family. They access it maybe a few times a day and it's the cheapest VPS I could find. So shutting down is not an option atm.
