    Will my fireworks be shipped to my home?

    Yes. Fireworks are shipped by common carrier (semi-truck) to your home or to the nearest freight terminal, and you can pick up your order there. Note a phone number that will be answered is very important for the freight company to arrange delivery. An adult must sign for the delivery.

    How long will it take to get my fireworks order?

    Fireworks orders typically ship within 2 business days, provided they have passed our fraud checks. Once the freight company has picked up your order, it typically takes 3 to 7 business days to reach you, depending on your location. Fireworks orders placed during the high seasons in December or June can take longer to process in our warehouse and to receive. Note that once the order has left our warehouse, we have no control over how fast it moves.

    How will I know when my order will arrive?

    We will email you a shipment confirmation that contains a tracking number when your order is picked up by the freight company. It is a good idea to monitor the shipment progress, and to contact the carrier if there are any exceptions. Note that the carrier will call to arrange delivery, so you must answer your phone or contact the carrier directly in order to schedule a delivery appointment.

    What is your substitution policy?

    At Captain Boom Fireworks we make every effort to fill your order as placed. However, because of the highly seasonal demand for our fireworks, it may be necessary to make a substitution. Substitutions will be a product from the same category and will be of equal or greater value. We cannot guarantee the substituted item will have the same colors or effects, but we will make every effort to send similar items when possible.

    What is the Michigan Fireworks Safety Fee?

    When Michigan Law changed in 2012, a 6% fireworks safety fee was required for retail sales of fireworks in Michigan. This fee is in addition to the 6% state sales tax. If you are a Michigan retail fireworks customer, the fireworks safety fee will appear in your basket. Non fireworks items we sell are exempt from the fee. When you purchase exempt items, those items will not be included in the fee calculation.

    Fireworks Displays and Training

    How can I buy a professional fireworks display?

    Captain Boom has over 40 years experience performing professional displays, and we can help you do your own display using consumer fireworks that can rival a professional display. We have pre-selected fireworks assortments that work very well for a wedding fireworks display or for any other occasion.

    How long will my fireworks show last?

    That depends on how many fireworks you put in it! To estimate how long your show will last, it works well to plan 30 seconds per 500g cake. If you have some longer lasting devices, add those in separately. We have found that for a wedding fireworks display, a 5 to 10 minute show works really well.
