New phone trying to backup to the icloud what is already on the icloud

I just got the Iphone 13 pro max, I previously had the iphone 11 pro max. My phone has not backed up to the cloud since I got it stating that there is not enough room, however it is trying to backup photos, videos, etc. that are already on the cloud from my last phone. Any advice? I do not want to purchase more storage, just to back up photos and stuff that is already on there.

iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 15

You can delete the iCloud Backup of the old phone if you no longer need it. See: Manage your iCloud storage - Apple Support
