Drop all tables in schema , can be modified to return any subset of tables.

declare @schema varchar(10) = 'temp' 
declare @max_number_of_tables int = 1000
declare @sql nvarchar(max)
declare @index int = 0


while (
select count(*)
from
    sys.objects obj
    join sys.schemas s
        on (s.schema_id=obj.schema_id)
where
    s.name= @schema 
    and obj.type = 'U'
    AND obj.is_ms_shipped = 0x0) > 0 and @index < @max_number_of_tables
begin
  set @index = @index+1

  select top 1
    @sql = N'DROP TABLE [' + @schema + '].[' + obj.name + ']'
  from
    sys.objects obj
    join sys.schemas s
        on (s.schema_id=obj.schema_id)
  where
    s.name = @schema
    and obj.type = 'U'
    AND obj.is_ms_shipped = 0x0
  order by obj.name

  print @sql

  execute(@sql)
end
