Fedex does not pickup packages from us on the weekends. Orders placed over the weekend will be shipped on Monday.

Unfortunately not. Due to the nature of the products, these are required to travel via hazmat ground, and cars can only go so fast.

Send an email to help@shutterbombs.com & Jake@shutterbombs.com ASAP!

If the order has already been shipped out, we will not be able to make any changes.

I hate the hazmat shipping just as much as you do - but unfortunately, there's just no way around it. 

Smoke bombs are classified as hazardous products and we are legally required to use a hazmat courier to deliver your order.

This shipping method is a $39.99 flat rate for each shipment - there is literally no way around it. We do not set this price, Fedex, and UPS set the price. I want to make it very clear that we do not make money on Shipping, in fact - we often lose money on it. 

For this reason we recommend ordering more units per order to get the best bang for your buck. 

Cart value $0-$100: $40 shipping

Cart value $100-$150: $30 shipping

Cart value $150-$200: $20 shipping

Cart Value $200+ we cover the hazmat shipping (free).

My recommendation is to round up some buddies and all go in on an order to hit that $200 free shipping threshold.

No. Not because we're grumpy, but because you legally cannot ship them back without a license, and Fedex won't do "one-off" hazmat shipments for people without licenses.

No, you cannot use our smoke bombs indoors as it will stain the interior and create potentially harmful environments if there is not good ventilation.

No, you cannot bring our smoke bombs on airplanes....

No, we cannot ship to P.O. Boxes. per Fedex's shipping guidelines for hazmat items.

Store them in a cool, dry place and get 10+ years out of them! Our smoke bombs are similar to wine in the sense that they actually get better (more dense, tend to burn longer) as the products get older.

Unfortunately, you cannot buy Shutter Bombs in any stores. We had to shut down all retail locations during COVID and haven't justified reopening them.

The Department of Transportation's (DOT) Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) enforces that all packages MUST BE SIGNED FOR. Any legal adult (18+) can sign for it, it doesn't need to be you. If you aren't home on the first attempt, Fedex will try 3 more times before the package gets sent back to us.

Absolutely! You can check out our YouTube channel for some awesome videos with tips and tricks.

"What is the best smoke bomb?" is a question we get a lot. The best smoke bombs are Shutter Bombs, due to their long-lasting, vibrant colors, wire-pull ignition system and awesome customer support. Our personal recommendation and our best seller, is going to be the Enola Gaye WP40 smoke bomb that's going to last up to 90 seconds.

The EGWP40 is the preferred smoke bomb for photographers due to it lasting up to 90 seconds, emits huge clouds of smoke all while still being affordable (compared to our other products lasting this long). There's a reason we've been voted the #1 smoke bomb for photographers in 2020, 2021, and 2022.

Yes, our smoke bombs are legal in the U.S.A. due to the products being registered as a signaling device, which stemmed from our work with several search and rescue agencies over the years.

The legality of smoke bombs in the USA can vary depending on the specific type of smoke bomb, its intended use, and the laws of the state or locality in which it is being used.

Generally speaking, smoke bombs that are sold for recreational or entertainment purposes are legal in most states. These types of smoke bombs typically produce colorful smoke and are often used in photography, film, or paintball games. However, it is important to note that even if smoke bombs are legal in a particular state, there may still be restrictions on their use in certain locations or situations.

On the other hand, smoke bombs that are designed for military or law enforcement use, such as smoke grenades, are highly regulated and require specific permits and licenses to purchase, possess, and use.

It is always a good idea to research and understand the local laws and regulations related to smoke bombs and other similar products before using or purchasing them. Additionally, it is important to follow all safety guidelines and manufacturer instructions when handling or using smoke bombs to minimize the risk of injury or damage.

YES! It was an unbelievable experience to be able to provide smoke effects to one of my favorite all-time shows.

Our smallest smoke bomb is going to be the EG25 Micro Smoke Bomb, also known as our mini smoke bombs. They're cost-friendly and last for up to 20 seconds.

Yes! Our colored smoke bombs are safe and non-toxic. While you can be in and around the smoke, we don't recommend taking big breaths (use some common sense). It's also worth noting that you should be taking precautionary measures (like wearing gloves or eye equipment).

Yes! We introduced the discrete labeled gender reveal smoke bombs to our line in the beginning of 2021 and it's been one of our top performers. We carry 4 different smoke bomb gender reveal products:
EGWP40
EG18x
Dual Vents
Micros (3 packs)

The largest smoke grenade we can legally sell you is the Enola Gaye EG18x smoke bomb. It's our highest smoke output product that's going to burn for up to 25 seconds. Although shorter than some of our other products, it's going to put out way more smoke.

Nope! Our wire-pull ignition system allows you to ignite your smoke grenade wherever you'd like (except for indoors). Say goodbye to forgetting the lighter or trying to ignite smoke grenades in the wind.

Yes! Different smoke bomb colors mean different things, especially within the military.

Red Smoke - In military and emergency services, red smoke is often used as a signaling device to mark a specific location or to signal for help. It can also be used to create a smokescreen to obscure visibility or provide cover for personnel.

Black Smoke - Mostly used for concealmeant

Blue smoke - Used for target marking (mark specific locations or ground troops), extraction (use for landing zones), and potential communication.

Green smoke - Green smoke is often used during training exercises to simulate the use of a signaling device in a combat situation. Troops may use green smoke to signal for extraction, mark a location, or communicate with other units.

Orange smoke - Search and Rescue: Orange smoke can be used to mark the location of a downed aircraft or missing personnel during search and rescue operations. This can help search and rescue teams quickly locate and recover personnel in need of assistance.

Pink smoke - Gender reveals.....duh

Purple smoke - Used for training and simulation for real life experiences.

Yellow smoke - In the military/emergency services, yellow smoke can be used to indicate a chemical hazard or contamination.

White smoke - Surrender: In some cases, white smoke may be used as a signal of surrender. For example, troops or vehicles may release white smoke to indicate that they are surrendering to enemy forces.

Smoke bombs are used by people in so many remarkable ways. Here are over 25 different use cases I've collected directly from customers in 2022.

Photoshoots, home defense, wind indicators, skydiving, airsoft, skydiving, celebrations, paintball, military simulations/training, Halloween, video shoots, pissing off the entire neighborhood (oops), visual effects, college announcements, checking room ventilation, smoke bombs for gopher infestation out of their holes, Search and rescue medics, pumpkin carving, signaling devices for backpackers, sports entrances, gender reveals, k-9 training, firefighter training, LZ’s, 4th of July, Graduation pictures, concealment, wedding photography, or for some plain ol’ fun!
