I accidentally created a new container in CloudKit, and it is really annoying that it comes up when I open dashboard. Any suggestion how to delete? On developer.apple.com I don't see a delete button for containers.

Container. A CloudKit. Container object provides access to an app container, and through the app container, access to its databases. It also contains methods for authenticating and fetching users.
Overview. The CloudKit framework provides interfaces for moving data between your app and your iCloud containers. You use CloudKit to store your app's existing data in the cloud so that the user can access it on multiple devices. You can also store data in a public area where all users can access it.
Create Your ContainerSelect the CloudKit checkbox. In addition to adding the CloudKit capability to your app, this selection also creates an iCloud container and adds the Push Notifications capability. The name of the container is your app's bundle identifier prefixed with “iCloud."
Cost. Although the running cost of servers is a big deal for developers. But in case of CloudKit you don't have to be worried about paying large expenses at all. As it offers a reasonable storage amount completely free.
Apple's iOS CloudKit documentation: Enable iCloud and Select CloudKit
Important: When you select CloudKit, Xcode creates a default container ID based on the bundle ID. Because you can’t delete iCloud containers, verify that your bundle ID is correct in the General pane in Xcode before selecting CloudKit. To change your bundle ID, read Set the Bundle ID in App Distribution Quick Start.
Apple's macOS CloudKit documentation: About Containers and Databases
Multiple apps and users have access to iCloud, but data is segregated and encapsulated in partitions called containers. The containers belonging to your apps cannot be accessed by apps from another developer. However, your apps can share containers. Multiple apps can share the same container, and one app can use multiple containers. There’s one default container per app, but you can create additional custom containers. The identifier for the default container matches the app’s bundle ID. The other container IDs you specify need to be unique across all developer accounts. Containers can’t be deleted.

You cant delete container currently. Best is to name containers App agnostic so you can reuse them later if needed for other Apps.
E.g: iCloud.com.mycompany.container1
