You may or may not know soy wax burns much more completely than paraffin wax. You can burn your soy candles down until you have about 1/4 of an inch left of the candle.

Here is a tip on how to get the remaining wax out so that you can reuse the container for other purposes.

To completely clean your container, set in small sauce pan that is 1/2 full of water. Turn your stove top to low and bring the temperature up. You will see that all of your remaining wax will liquefy. Once it does pick up the jar with a potholder and pour the remaining soy candle wax out of the container and into the garbage. Wipe the remaining wax out with a paper towel. Now just was it with regular dish soap and warm water. After the container is dry, it's ready for a new purpose!
