The three types of accounts on a consumer credit report are installment accounts, revolving credit and open accounts. Credit cards are considered revolving accounts.
Most companies will not delete accounts that have been paid, nor do they have to under the law. The Fair Credit Reporting Act allows them to report the accounts as paid charge offs, or as charge off/collection with a zero balance and to report the date that the account was paid in full or settled.
Why would you want to do anything? Having active accounts, instead of charged off accounts is a positive reflection of your past credit history and is probably causing you to have a credit score. This is a good thing, certainly much better than having charge offs, even paid charge offs showing. Your credit report is a history of how you have managed debt over the past 7 to 10 years.

Having them removed would certainly decrease your current credit score.
