Can I delete my Capture One Catalog?

I use Capture One to edit real estate photography. Once the files have been edited and exported I don't need the RAW files on my computer anymore so I delete those. I also delete the individual albums in Capture 1 for each house I edit.

Despite this, my Capture One Catalog is 155 GB on my hard drive. And in my 'Catalog Collections - All Images' I have close to 95,000 images.

Is there an easy way to get rid of all this extra data?

Thanks!

  Thanks for the suggestions folks. 

  I hadn't deleted the RAW's in C1. I deleted the albums from C1, and the RAW's from my hard drive but I guess C1 was still holding on to a bunch of the data.

  When I tried to delete all 95,000 images it told me it was going to take 45 hours to do, so I simply deleted the Catalog. I had zero use for any of the old images or data, so I think this will work.
