- Quick and Safe Operation: Stay in the cab for the entire operation, making this ideal for high-volume, high-risk sites.
- Built for Telehandlers: The ETS skip is specifically designed for telehandler forks, offering better balance and stability during tipping.
- Lightweight yet Robust: Despite the lighter build, it's just as robust and durable as heavy-duty models

Product Specifications – ETS Self-Locking Telehandler Skip
Key Features of the ETS Self-Locking Telehandler Skip
- Automatic Self-Locking Mechanism: The ETS Self-Locking Telehandler Skip features a built-in auto-lock system that engages automatically when a telehandler lifts the skip. It securely clamps behind the heel of the forks without the need for manual locking or safety chains, providing a safer and faster alternative to traditional tipping skips.
- Hands-Free Disengagement: Once the ETS skip is lowered back to the ground, the locking system automatically disengages, allowing the skip to be released without the operator ever needing to leave the telehandler cab.
- Robust, Reinforced Construction: Manufactured in the UK using 2.3mm thick high-grade steel for both the main body and the support framework, along with reinforced fork entry sleeves and a triangulated top edge to ensure the telehandler skip maintains rigidity under load and through repeated use.
- Triangulated Top Beam for Extra Strength: The angled top design adds structural integrity and helps resist deformation over time. This makes the ETS telehandler skip ideal for harsh construction and industrial environments.
- Fully Tested and Certified: Every skip is supplied fully tested and certified for telehandler use, meeting all relevant UK health and safety standards for lifting and material handling equipment.
- No Chains or Manual Release Required: Unlike forklift tipping skips, this model eliminates the need for restraint chains or lever-operated tipping mechanisms; everything is controlled from within the cab.
- Compact Yet High Capacity: With a 1250-litre internal volume and a 2000kg safe working load (SWL), the ETS model offers ample capacity for daily site operations while remaining compact and manoeuvrable.
