A Horcrux must be damaged beyond magical repair to be destroyed, so very few things could do the trick; the only two that were used (and that we therefore even know about) are Basilisk venom and Fiendfyre (cursed fire created by a dark spell that is apparantly extraordinarily hard to control). The Sword of Gryffindor became the indispensable weapon against them because it was goblin-made, and therefore had absorbed the venom of the basilisk Harry killed by stabbing the sword through the roof of its mouth.

Here are the specifics, in the order the Horcruxes were destroyed:

1. Harry destroyed Tom Riddle's diary in the Chamber of Secrets (both the book and the place) with Basilisk venom by stabbing it with a fang from the dead creature.

2. Dumbledore destroyed Marvolo Gaunt's ring with the Sword of Gryffindor.

3. Ron destroyed the locket using the Sword of Gryffindor.

4. Hermione destroyed Hufflepuff's cup using a fang recovered from the Basilisk's skeleton in the chamber of secrets.

5. Vincent Crabbe destroyed the Ravenclaw's diadem, quite accidentally, using Fiendfyre.

6. Voldemort himself released Harry from his Horcrux status by killing his body in their penultimate showdown.

7. Neville killed Nagini with the Sword of Gryffindor (although judging by how Harry was released and the fact that Voldemort endeavoured to protect her so well, the Basilisk venom may not have been strictly necessary).
