Fireworks that exploded when the van they were loaded into caught fire destroyed the vehicle.
Firefighters were called to Wimborne Road in Tarrant Keyneston, Dorset, at about 21:50 GMT on Friday.
Dorset & Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service said because of the risk posed by the fireworks a cordon was put in place but removed once the fire burned out.
Crews left at about 07:50 on Saturday but the road will remain closed so the van can be recovered and road repairs carried out. No-one was injured.
