Iowa Firework Laws and Regulations
Fireworks are a fun and exciting way to celebrate special occasions. However, they can also be dangerous if not handled properly. That’s why Iowa has strict laws and regulations governing the sale, possession, and use of fireworks in the state. We’ll explore the Iowa firework laws and regulations to help you understand what’s legal and what’s not.
Legal Fireworks in Iowa
In Iowa, only certain types of fireworks are legal. These include sparklers, snakes, smoke devices, and other novelty items that don’t explode or fly through the air. The state also allows certain types of consumer fireworks, such as firecrackers, Roman candles, and bottle rockets. However, these consumer fireworks can only be sold and used during specific times of the year.
Illegal Fireworks in Iowa
There are also several types of fireworks that are illegal in Iowa. These include any fireworks that explode or fly through the air, such as M-80s, cherry bombs, and aerial shells. Possessing or using these types of fireworks can result in fines and even criminal charges.
It’s important to note that just because a firework is legal in another state doesn’t mean it’s legal in Iowa. Always check the state’s laws and regulations before purchasing or using fireworks.
