Yes, soy candles can be recycled as long as they are made with a biodegradable container. This includes containers made from materials like glass or tin, which can easily be washed out and reused for other purposes.
However, if the container is not biodegradable (e.g. plastic), it should be properly disposed of according to local recycling guidelines. Some candle manufacturers also offer recycling programs for their containers, so it’s worth checking with the brand before tossing out your old candle containers. Overall, choosing soy candles is not only good for your health but also for the environment!
