Be careful if you use the microwave. The bottoms sometimes have a small piece of metal that holds the wick. I just sit them in a pan of very hot water, then use something to get the biggest part of the wax out. Then use paper towel to wipe out the remaining wax. The old candle jars are great to store stuff in. You can also get the spray paint that is frost... it is easy to use (be sure to use in ventilated area) and makes the jars look great!

Freeze them. Or, most candles have wicks all the way through, And if you burn a candle for a while the wax will melt. So try pouring the hot wax into the trashcan, so your wick stays long.

Use Partylite candles!! They burn completely down so you dont have any wax to clean!! If you do not then the best bet is the freezer.

gently, melt them in the microwave.
Pour out the wax, then when the glass is still hot, carefully wipe it with a paper towel.
That will get rid of the remaining wax.
Do not burn yourself!

Put them in hot water and wait for the wax to melt and wipe them clean

put the container in the freezer, it will shrink the wax tap it on the counter upside down on a towel, the wax should pop out.

I agree with the others; you should warm the glass enough to soften the wax to where it's pliable enough to remove. This is what I do when I want to reuse the glass or recycle it.

Soak them in VERY hot water in your sink. The leftover wax will lift right out. :)
