What can you buy and use?
Wyoming's current firework laws allow the purchase of ground and handheld sparkling devices, cylindrical and cone fountains, wheel and ground spinners, illuminating torches, and certain flitter sparklers. So you can buy listed fireworks on our site and set them off during allowed times. Firecrackers, Roman candles, chasers, wire and wooden stick sparklers, and skyrockets are still illegal.
Age
You have to be 16+ to buy and sell fireworks. You also need to sign a waiver that states you will not use the fireworks within city limits. (As our site uses credit cards and other payment methods that require a contract that requires you to be of legal age to sign or have the permission of a legal guardian to use we consider all sales to be authorized by someone of legal age for buying. For most states this is 18+).
Shipping
Processing is typical 24 hours with freight shipping to Wyoming is about 2-3 days as with all freight it does not ship on the weekends.
Times
The use of consumer fireworks is now limited to noon on June 28th to noon on July 6th.
