Please have a look at older forum post covering this same topic.

//You can use http://wemcode.wemblog.com/get_asset_reference_in_page to write your script. First find all Asset using either xpath query (With nodeType as dam:Asset) or iterate through all nodes under /content/dam and then find reference using above code and if reference count is zero then remove that node (Be careful, that non reference node does not mean you will not use it in future). After deleting all asset don't forget to run datastore Garbage collection. Also make sure that you remove all those asset from publish instance as well (Deactivation of those node should do that).
