I have taken a piece of cardboard and cut a circular hole in the middle 
that fits perfectly to the top of a fluid handsoap refill bottle. I push 
the cardboard around the top, remove the lid of my container and with a 
quick movement place the bottle upside-down on the open container. Then 
I can leave it for 24 hours or more, when all the soap from the refill 
has run into the container.

I of course only do that when there isn't much left in the bottle.
