Unused fireworks

[SHEP]

We spent about $400 on fireworks for the 4th this year and not on the kind you get at Walmart. We still have over half of them left as we overbought not thinking the others in the group were brining the same amount. I think we have about 20 mortars, 5 boxes with multiple shots in them, and 6 smaller boxes that don’t go up in the air. Not sure what to do with them. Store for next year? If so, what’s the best method so I don’t end up on the news?

Thanks,

Shep

I’ve always just put them in the closet of the master bedroom. Curious to read the responses as I’ve never really even thought twice about it

I'll dispose of them for you for a lil fee

They are currently in my guest room closet that never gets used but not sure that’s the best spot.

I’m willing to assist and can bring beer

Light them off on a random weekday night and have all your neighbors come out pissed

Light them off on a random weekday night and have all your neighbors come out passed

I prefer 2am. Please wait approx 5min for the second one, so I will almost be back asleep.

If you live in a state they are legal..

The best way to preserve them is in a cool dry place.

If not..

The best way to preserve them the exact same, but, is not to post what you have on the internet

Definitely dont call in law enforcement into an internet thread that you have illegal admittance. Ohh wait.. someone already did that for you

Please take them to your closest fire station. They will take care of them.

Being that each city/county has their own ordinances regarding f.works I don't believe it's a state legality issue. As has been said, store in a cool, dry place far away from any heat or sources of ignition. In your house?
Better triple your h.o. Insurance. Haha

I keep mine on the shelf right next to the ammo.

 

[ChumpChange]

I put them on the mantle above my fireplace.

Any closet will do. Leave them where they’re at. Just don’t have a house fire.

Unused fireworks? Is there such a term? That’s never happened at any 4th of July party I’ve ever been to.

 

[Deckin Around]

Never seen an expiration date on fireworks. An old 2 or 4 drawer fire proof file cabinet off craigslist for $100 is great for ammo and fireworks. Those suckers are sooo heavy.

Just go around back and put them in the bed of the first pickup truck you see, it's where they will end up anyways. [emoji23][emoji41]

Take a desert trip this winter. Always fun to light some off while camping.

We just had some drinks and lit a 50 shot off at the park down the street from my house. So at least the neighbors are like damn those fuckin kids verses wtf Tim really? Lmao

 

[Big B Hova]

I keep mine in the broiler drawer under the stove. It's metal so it's gotta be fire resistant and no one ever looks in there

 

[nowski]

Save them for Halloween especially if you have any M80's. Have you ever seen what an M80 will do to a pumpkin???

So long as it isn’t in a fireplace you will be fine
