Our Story

About Chilton Oil Company

For over 60 years, Chilton Oil has been the trusted propane provider for families, farms, and businesses throughout central Missouri. We're big enough to serve you well, and small enough to know you by name.

A Local Company Built on Trust

Chilton Oil Company has been delivering propane to central Missouri since 1964. What started as a small, family-run operation in Salem has grown into one of the region's most trusted propane providers — serving over 10,000 customers and delivering more than 4.5 million gallons of propane annually.

Our approach has always been simple: treat every customer the way we'd want to be treated. That means showing up on time, being honest about pricing, and picking up the phone when it rings — even at 2 AM.

We currently serve Salem, Licking, Ironton, Houston, and the surrounding areas of Missouri. Our team knows this region and the people in it, and we're proud to be a part of this community.
