Is it safe to delete the RECYCLER folders created by windows in each partition?

I realize that in each of my partitions (C and D) is a hidden folder called RECYCLER. It seems they use up a lot of space on my computer. What are these folder used for and is it safe to delete them?
well, I actually DID delete the contents of the folder in my D drive and saved up 5.6 GB of diskspace. Nothing happened!

    I MUST NOT BE DELETED. If you want to reduce it’s size, clean your recycle bin. Recycler is the place where deleted files (to the recycle bin) is actually placed.

    Those are the folders where every file that is deleted for the respective partition goes to. Then they are all linked to show up on the recycle bin on the desktop. It is a SYSTEM folder and SHOULD NOT BE DELETED.
