Safe Candle & Glass Container Disposal: A Step-by-Step Guide

1. Allow candles to cool completely before disposing of them. This will help prevent the glass from cracking or shattering.

2. Remove the wick from the candle. Use a spoon or knife to carefully scrape them off.

3. Rinse the glass container with hot water and soap. This will help remove any residual wax or wick.

4. Recycle the glass container. Most communities have recycling programs for glass. Check your local recycling guidelines for more information.

5. Dispose of the wax in the trash. Wax is not recyclable.

6. Alternatively, you can also take the candles to a recycling center that specializes in recycling candles and candle containers.
