How to clean unwanted files on a Mac

I have a 2009 Mac.  I have not cleaned out the files or anything.  Can anyone suggest what I do?

How to Free Up Space on The Hard Drive

1. You can remove data from your Home folder except for the /Home/Library/ folder.
2. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on your hard drive.
3. Also, see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
4. Free up storage space on your Mac.
5. See Where did my Disk Space go?.
6. Be sure to Empty the Trash to recover the space.
7. Replace the drive with a larger one. Check out OWC for drives, tutorials, and toolkits.
8. Use OmniDiskSweeper or GrandPerspective to search your drive for large files and where they are located.

I would suggest backing up your files, erasing the drive, and reinstalling OS X. Best way to clean up the computer after so long a time. Should do it at least once per year.
