How do I delete something in a Bin – AND delete it’s associated media files?
At the moment when I delete something in my project, i.e. a clip, I know that it’s render files and media files wont be deleted unless I manually go in and delete them myslef which is tedious to say the least.
Is there some way of doing this from within the project?
When I used to use avid, I would delete something in a bin, and it would bring up a prompt asking “Do you wish to delete associated media files?”

Right click or control click on your media files/clips…. select “Make Offline.” A dialog appears where you’ll have the option of deleting the media. Once you do that you can delete the bins or clips.

Right click or OPT-click on the clip in the bin and select MAKE OFFLINE. Then you have three options on how to delete.
Render files are deleted by FCP automatically when they are no longer used by FCP…at least in my experience.
