Your space saving will be pretty minimal. Themes are usually not that large a file. If it includes the xfce4-goodies you have a lot more theme and icons probably installed than a real xfce4 install would give you if unaltered from the xfce devs version. If you installed the xfce-desktop to an ubuntu netinstall I am not sure what all is installed because it would be up to the Ubuntu folks what exactly was in that meta package. If you are using Xubuntu you have an awful lot of Gnome things installed to make it work, like nautilus to run the desktop. The not recommended way would be to open your file browser as root and delete them that way. The recommended way would be to rm the files from /user/share/themes or /icons using the cli. I have no idea what package managers with a gui are installed on Ubuntu of any version anymore. Therefore you need to check the content of the meta package to see what they install. You could remove the packages that installed them but those are all meta packages and do not install just one theme or icon set at a time. There is no reason at all not to remove those unused themes and icon sets.
