There is no method for dropping a collection from mongoose, the best you can do is remove the content of one :
Model.remove({}, function(err) { console.log('collection removed') });
But there is a way to access the mongodb native javascript driver, which can be used for this
mongoose.connection.collections['collectionName'].drop( function(err) { console.log('collection dropped'); });
Warning
Make a backup before trying this in case anything goes wrong!
