I just moved one of the folders of my library. It has 1000 movies in it. After moving the folder and adding it to my library, my plex server is regenerating all the thumbnails for my movies.
What about the previous thumbnails from my movies? Will they get deleted automatically? Or will they continue to take up valuable storage space?
Ideally you could have even moved them and make Plex recognize those items were already in your library, re-using the items instead of creating new ones.

As for cleaning up… Plex should do that automatically during an upcoming maintenance slot. Otherwise you can force it to do that:
Settings > [Server Name] > Manage > Troubleshooting > Clean Bundles
in the main navigation: click More, hover over the server name and click ⋮ > Manage Server > Clean Bundles
