Goto your local.xml magento root directory app\design\frontend\my_pakage\my_theme\layout\local.xml

If local.xml file is not created then please create the file with the same name.

Edit that file and add the below provided code 

<layout version="0.1.0">
        
        <checkout_onepage_index translate="label">
        
                        <remove name="left.newsletter"/>
                        <!-- <remove name="left.your_block_name"> -->

        </checkout_onepage_index>
        
</layout>

Here, I have explained e.g with "Newsletter" part only, you can add other blocks into <customer_account_login> same as <remove> tag [ See the code I have added as a comment].

Hope this helps you.
