    You can use Umbraco.Web.Composing.Current.Services.MediaService.Delete(media-item) on a Media-item, given that you'd have the media-item. Otherwise, to get it by ID first: MediaService.GetById(id)

    Hi Guys,

    For completeness here is how I do it for Umbraco 8.

    public void DeleteMedia(int mediaId)
        {
            try
            {
                IMedia media = _mediaService.GetById(mediaId);
                if(media != null)
                    _mediaService.Delete(media);

            }
            catch (Exception e)
            {
                _logger.Error<UmbMediaService>("DeleteMedia | Exception: {0} | Message: {1}", e.InnerException != null ? e.InnerException.ToString() : "", e.Message != null ? e.Message.ToString() : "");
            }
        }
