var/cache - store all cacheable objects but not page cache

var/page_cache cache from full page cache (if you don't use varnish or redis)

Your issue can be related with advanced reporting, but I don't know what version of Magento you use.

Check /tmp/analytics is it taking a lot of space?

You can install ncdu on server , it's nice visualization to find what is taking a lot of space.

Command:

ncdu /

Update: Mageplaza SMTP log file was large.

    You can change in Magento backend => mageplaza SMTP configuration. To limit logs or disable them. Commented May 25, 2020 at 5:03

It seems that you're using Mageplaza SMTP module.

This module has a configuration setting to delete all emails after X days. Simply set to 30 days, and the next cron run will reduce your database size.

Did you check auto Backup (Scheduled Backup ) is enabled, under store->Configuration->ADVANCED->System->Backup Settings. you have to maintain your Backup Scheduled.

What specific version of Magento are you on?

How many SKU do you have in your store? #Sku's will drive page cache and block cache growth.

Its possible images being resized are also probably increasing storage space - when you import product photos we don't re-size the images until the store takes traffic. Your store is getting traffic and triggering the image resizes. You'll have a # of image resizes based on the # of different images your theme uses.

Have you tried flushing your cache? That should clean up the cache files from var/. You'd want to do that after you upgraded anyway so there's no harm in doing it before to reduce your backup time.
