To move stuff off / , do this (as root)
mv /opt /home; ln -s /home/opt /opt
This will move your /opt folder (which usally contains quite a bit of stuff) into the /home directory (which has plenty of space). The second command makes a symbolic link from /opt --> /home/opt
Of course you can do this with other directories as well, but I generally stay away from messing with /boot /etc /bin and /sbin.
