Here's an example set of commands used to clean up a Linux boot partition. Of course, replace exact image and header numbers with appropriate version numbers vis-à-vis your machine.
dpkg --list 'linux-image*'
sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-image-3.16.0-41-generic
dpkg --list 'linux-headers**'
sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-headers-3.16.0-41
You can also use df -h
to see disk usage before and after.

Just make sure you keep at least one bootable kernel installed. ;)

Nice post.
Just remeber to do:
sudo apt-get autoclean && apt-get autoremove -y
** After you have rebooted your system to the new kernel.

I think you have to sudo the second command too, ie.
sudo apt-get autoclean && sudo apt-get autoremove -y

An additional step:
ls /boot
Remove all the old files that look something like:
initrd.img-4.4.0-70-generic.old-dkms
These files can take up a lot of room if you have a lot of old kernels.
