Ground handling
Unconfirmed · 3 providers
Aeronáutica Civil de Colombia (Aerocivil)
Aerocivil directly administers this non-concessioned regional aerodrome (confirmed operator per Aerocivil, Wikipedia ES/EN, and volavi.co trade press); no dedicated third-party ground-handling company is documented at this small field, so basic ramp/apron coordination is presumed to sit with the airport administration itself, per the common South American pattern of the field operator self-providing where no commercial handler exists. Airport-specific confirmation of handling arrangements was not found.

SATENA
Self-handled, SATENA (presumed). Confirmed scheduled operator at TLU to Bogotá (Terminal Puente Aéreo) and Medellín-Olaya Herrera using ATR 42 aircraft since March 2017 (Wikipedia ES/EN, cross-checked against SATENA's own site). As Colombia's state-owned regional carrier mandated to serve routes lacking commercial infrastructure, SATENA typically self-handles its own turnarounds at small Aerocivil-administered aerodromes such as this one that have no third-party ground handler; airport-specific confirmation of the handling arrangement was not found beyond this well-established industry pattern, so status is held at unconfirmed pending direct evidence.

Clic (Aerolínea Clic)
Self-handled, Clic (presumed). Confirmed by Wikipedia (Spanish and English editions) as a scheduled operator from TLU to Medellín-Olaya Herrera with seasonal service to Pereira/Ibagué, appearing as a current listed carrier in the airport's route table. Clic's own commercial domain (clic.com.co, both bare and www variants) currently redirects to an Afternic for-sale/parked-domain page, so no independent airline-operated contact channel could be verified in this search even though the route itself is corroborated by two independent Wikipedia editions; retained as a documented operator with presumed self-handling, consistent with the absence of any third-party handler at this field.

Aircraft fuel
Unconfirmed
Aeronáutica Civil de Colombia (Aerocivil)
No named fuel supplier or into-plane agent is documented in any public source for this airport. The field supports scheduled ATR 42 turboprop service (SATENA), implying some Jet A-1 fuel logistics exist, but whether this is a stationed supplier or trucked-in/ad-hoc arrangement coordinated by the airport administration could not be confirmed.

Cargo handling

SATENA
SATENA's public-service mandate includes cargo and mail carriage to underserved regional destinations across its national network (confirmed via SATENA's own site, which lists a dedicated "SATENA Carga" service and cargo contract terms); however this is network-level evidence, not a TLU-specific confirmation. Airport-specific cargo volumes, schedule, or facility at TLU were not found, so status is held at unconfirmed rather than asserting the service is on-request here.
