Creating space in root folder

Hi , I was wondering if anyone knows any great ways for creating space in your Root Folder.
My root folder was created with only 247.7MB & I found out that its now full & I was initially wondering how important the "thumbnails Folder" was & if it was alright to delete their contenses as I noticed a lot of files in them.
Thanks anyone who may know of other options or if deleting thumbnails matters much as I am not sure where they exactly get used from the root folder.
