How do you remove candle from glass container?

Answer:
Melt it all the way down and pour out the unused candle wax, then clean the jar with Hot Soap water. You may have to scoop or dig out some wax that may be left in the jar.

I disagree. There is a less messy way to do this job.. You put the candle in the freezer. The molecules will constrict and the candle should pop right out. No messy melted wax or scraping. It works most of the time. Some candles need a little more prying than others.

I don't think it's a right or wrong way to do it. I make candles and as far as Container wax goes it's is a very soft wax, it's not going to just pop right out of the jar after it have set in the freezer, mine don't, there are a lot of forms of waxes and some that are more structural and hard. But some digging may be required if you put your container in the freezer which is still messy.

However both methods are effective such as putting them in the freezer of to use boiling water, both are methods on how to remove it, not according to less messy.
