Fedex classifies smoke bombs as hazardous materials (hazmat) due to their chemical composition.

We are required by law to use hazmat ground delivery.

I want to make it clear that we DO NOT make any money on shipping. We are simply passing along the flat rate price Fedex charges us per shipment that leaves our facility, which is $40.

There is no way to avoid these charges, I hate them just as much as you.

We do have shipping discounts when your cart reaches the following thresholds:

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).

In the shipping world, our products are classified as explosives (your package will have a big explosive sticker on it, don't be alarmed).

As you can imagine, shipping explosives is highly regulated & expensive (but 100% legal).

The Department of Transportation's (DOT) Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) require all drivers delivering explosive packages to get a signature from any legal adult (18+).

If you aren't available on the first attempt, Fedex will try 3 more times before the package gets held at a sorting facility.

1st smoke bomb purchase

My 1st attempt at a photo session using a smoke bomb. So fun and can not wait to do it again! I bought purple, blue, pink and gray. I loved the purple and vibrancy. I have yet to use the others, but I know I will love them as well and be ordering many more! Shipping was fast too!

Smoke the Impresses

I used shutter bombs for my wedding. Hassle free, orders arrived on time and the guest who helped hold the smoke bombs easily picked up how to use it. The quality of the smoke bombs were also perfect for pictures.

Unbelievable smoke effects from these suckers!

Wasn’t sure what to expect, but we chose Jake’s company as our exclusive smoke affect provider for a photography clinic and group event. Let me tell you these things are amazing and the results were out of this world!

Amazing

I was so excited to receive these color smoke bombs for my son’s senior photos. We were using them for a dramatic effect. They didn’t disappoint. They were amazing. Easy to light and safe to use at the fields at the school. Love that we used these and will definitely purchase them again for my younger son’s photos.

America's favorite COLORED SMOKE BOMB

See why people love our smoke bombs 👇

I recently did a photoshoot and when I asked my photographer if we could add some smoke bombs she recommended we use Shutter Bombs. Let me tell you! They did NOT disappoint! Of course I had such a hard time picking out just a few colors so we got a bunch of them (twin vent and regular). These made the experience that much more fun! Jake from Shutter Bombs took great care of me, can't recommend enough!

Alex S.

I purchased some smoke grenades to help enhance our training evolution for our fire department. These little things did not disappoint! They gave us the limited to zero visibility we needed to make it as real as possible. I will be sure to get more for any and all training evolutions when we cannot have a live fire environment. Fantastic stuff!!!

Kent E.

I used Shutter bombs for my military medical tactical trauma lanes. I put in the order and received the order faster than I would have by putting in the standard military supply request fortraining. The students loved the smoke effects and realism of the training. Thanks to Shutter Bombs for making my training a success. I will be calling upon you again shortly!

Kyle S.

Impressive smoke, better than I thought. A lot lighter than what I carried 50 yrs ago. I now carry some while back pack hunting......just in case. So far I really like them, I'm sure when I use up what I have, I will buy more.

Please allow 24 hours for order processing.

All orders placed on the weekend will be shipped out 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! Please include your name, email, order # and the requested changes.

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....

Email me personally at jake@shutterbombs.com or my customer support team (which may or may not be my mom) and we'll happily answer any questions you may have!

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, we only sell online.

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.

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.

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!
