Telehandler Auto-Locking Skip (HDTS TELESKIP)

The HDTS Telehandler Auto-Locking Skip, also known as the Teleskip, is a UK-manufactured, heavy-duty tipping skip designed for safety, efficiency and daily use in demanding site environments. As the original auto-locking skip for telehandlers, this robust model automatically locks and unlocks from behind the fork heels, enabling quick, safe attachment without the operator leaving the cab.


Engineered from reinforced steel and containing 30% more material than comparable models, the HDTS skip is built for longevity and resilience in tough construction conditions. A reinforced top edge absorbs direct impact, while fork pockets with 9mm reinforced entry points reduce damage from rough handling. The result is a skip designed to outlast and outperform on every job.


Available in five standard sizes from 500 to 1750 litres, and compatible with a wide range of telehandler models, the Teleskip offers safe, secure and efficient waste transfer. Optional castor wheels increase mobility on hard-standing surfaces, making it ideal for sites, factories and yards.


Why Choose the HDTS Telehandler Auto-Locking Skip?

Stay in the Cab – Full Auto-Locking Design

With the Teleskip, operators no longer need to leave their telehandler to secure a restraint chain. Its clever heel-pin locking system, activated automatically when raised off the ground, guarantees a secure fit every time, enhancing site safety and saving valuable time.

Stronger Build, Longer Service Life

This skip is built to withstand continued heavy usage and heavy-duty loads. Compared to similar units, the HDTS contains 30% more steel, with a fully reinforced, triangulated top edge that absorbs impact from heavy or sharp debris. Built for rough handling, it’s ready for high-frequency site use.

Engineered for Easy Handling

Featuring full-length fork pockets and a four-way entry base, the HDTS is easy to manoeuvre from any approach. The gas strut heel-locking system is protected by a welded steel guard and offers simple access for servicing and maintenance.

Ideal for Construction, Waste and Materials

From brick and rubble removal to site waste and general loading, the HDTS excels in all site applications. It’s one of the safest and most efficient solutions for materials handling with a telehandler.

FAQs for the Telehandler Auto-Locking Skip (HDTS TELESKIP)

What is the Telehandler Auto-Locking Skip (HDTS TELESKIP)?

Telehandler Auto-Locking Skip (HDTS TELESKIP) is a heavy-duty telehandler tipping skip that locks securely onto floating fork heels using gas-struts, no chains required. It allows for safe, single-operator material movement and tipping directly from inside the telehandler cab.


How does the auto-locking mechanism work on the Telehandler Auto-Locking Skip (HDTS TELESKIP)?

The Telehandler Auto-Locking Skip (HDTS TELESKIP) uses a gas-strut-assisted mechanism to lock onto the telehandler forks automatically. When the forks slide into the skip’s pockets and lift, the gas struts activate heel pins behind the fork heels, securely locking the skip in place. It releases automatically once placed back on the ground.


What Is a Telehandler Auto-Locking Skip (HDTS TELESKIP)?

Telehandler Auto-Locking Skip (HDTS TELESKIP) is a tipping skip designed with an advanced gas-strut locking system that secures the skip onto the telehandler forks without any need for safety chains. Once the skip is lifted from the ground, the rear heel pins automatically engage, locking it in position for safe use across any construction or demolition site.


How Does the Autolocking Mechanism Work on the Telehandler Auto-Locking Skip (HDTS TELESKIP)?

Telehandler Auto-Locking Skip (HDTS TELESKIP) skips are fitted with floating fork heels supported by a gas strut system rather than traditional safety chains. As the telehandler forks engage the skip and lift, the gas struts push the heel pins into place behind the forks, locking the skip securely. This ensures the skip stays fixed, even when tilted, no manual chains or intervention required.


What Are the Advantages of Using a Telehandler Auto-Locking Skip (HDTS TELESKIP)?

Telehandler Auto-Locking Skip (HDTS TELESKIP) offers several advantages:

- Increased safety: No need for the operator to exit the cab or attach safety chains.

- Time efficiency: Simply drive into the fork pockets and lift—no manual setup.

- Reliable locking: The skip locks automatically and stays secured during tipping.

- Cab-controlled tipping: No manual handle—just use the in-cab tipping controls.

- Proven UK design: The HDTS TELESKIP is the original UK-manufactured auto-locking telehandler skip.


Which sizes of Telehandler Auto-Locking Skip (HDTS TELESKIP) are available?

Telehandler Auto-Locking Skip (HDTS TELESKIP) is available in five standard sizes from 500 litres to 1750 litres. The 1250 litre version (HDTS-1250W) comes fitted with castors. All models have a 2000 kg safe working load. Custom sizes and colours are available. Contact us to discuss your needs.


What safety features does the Telehandler Auto-Locking Skip (HDTS TELESKIP) have?

Telehandler Auto-Locking Skip (HDTS TELESKIP) includes a gas-strut auto-locking system, triangulated top-edge reinforcement, heavy-duty fork tunnels, and optional accessories like lids, heel pins, or chains for additional compliance with site safety regulations.


Can I Fit Castors or Lids to the Telehandler Auto-Locking Skip (HDTS TELESKIP)?

Telehandler Auto-Locking Skip (HDTS TELESKIP) can be configured with accessories such as castors (HDTS‑1250W), mesh lids, canvas lids, heel pins, and more. ULS offers custom options, just call or email for details on bespoke configurations.


Is the Telehandler Auto-Locking Skip (HDTS TELESKIP) Compliant with Safety Standards?

Telehandler Auto-Locking Skip (HDTS TELESKIP) is manufactured following PUWER regulations and complies with UK and European safety standards for on-site lifting and tipping operations.


How safe is the Telehandler Auto-Locking Skip (HDTS) compared to chain-lock skips?

Because the HDTS Telehandler Auto-Locking Skip auto-locks without chains or manual intervention, it significantly reduces slip hazards and eliminates the risk of the driver exiting the cab, boosting site safety and efficiency.
