Deleting old postgresql log files (Ubuntu)

In a Ubuntu machine hosting a postgresql database, I have 16G space taken up at /var/lib/postgresql/9.3/main/pg_log. Apparently, log files from many months ago are being stored as well. I manually deleted a few to get rid of my disk full error. What's a robust way to delete old postgresql logs every week? Anything I can do in postgresql.conf to automate this process?

Currently I have the following in postgresql.conf:

#log_truncate_on_rotation = off         # If on, an existing log file with the
                                        # same name as the new log file will be
                                        # truncated rather than appended to.
                                        # But such truncation only occurs on
                                        # time-driven rotation, not on restarts
                                        # or size-driven rotation.  Default is
                                        # off, meaning append to existing files
                                        # in all cases.
#log_rotation_age = 1d                  # Automatic rotation of logfiles will
                                        # happen after that time.  0 disables.
log_rotation_size = 100MB               # Automatic rotation of logfiles will
                                        # happen after that much log output.
                                        # 0 disables.

I'm thinking I'll enable log_rotation_age and set its value to 30d. But will this auto delete older log files?

You can use the configuration below;

log_truncate_on_rotation = on
log_rotation_age = 1d
log_filename = 'postgresql-%a.log'
log_rotation_size = 0  #just rotate daily

This says create a log file with a name like 'postgresql-Mon.log' and when rotation occurs override the old file with the same name.
