Prepare for the deletion first. Consider the issues.
- The implications of the deletion.
- An interaction with custom domains.
- The latency limitations of deleting a blog.
The deletion process itself is not complicated. Start from a link at the top of the Settings - Basic screen.
There's the link - "Delete blog" - right at the top of the screen. Easy to find, and to click on.
Having clicked in it, we get a good stern warning.
we can't restore your blog posts once you choose to delete your blog.Plain enough?
And a link to let you export the blog contents, before deleting the blog. I'd export first, any time. And now, due to popular demand, you can restore a deleted blog.
Note that, for the latter ability to exist, a deleted blog will be with you forever - including being on your dashboard ("Show all" at the bottom). If you truly want to get rid of a blog (or the URL, anyway), you have 2 just choices:
- Transfer control of the blog to someone else, carefully.
- Make the blog into a stub, then re publish the stub under another URL.

someone told me that you can back up your blog by exporting it. Is this true?
Darwen,
You can back up the comments and posts - not the gadgets or template though. You can back up the template, separately. There's no solution for backing up the gadgets yet.
