A grain bypass can be retrofit to an out auger of a grain bin. This allows for the transfer of grain, such as corn, from the grain bin to a portable auger and/or truck or other type of transfer vehicle. The grain bypass can be configured to instead divert grain down a second bypass path so as to substantially cleanout the grain bypass housing. The grain bypass includes a slide that can be inserted into the grain bypass in two separate positions so that the slide can always be contained within the system, and thus remain with the system at all times.

A stacker-reclaimer apparatus for handling bulk material at a storage site includes a central tower having a vertical axis, a stacker boom rotatably mounted to the central tower about the vertical axis thereof, a reclaimer boom rotatably mounted to the central tower about the vertical axis thereof independently of the stacker boom, a conveyor mounted on the reclaimer boom, the conveyor including a conveyor screw, a hoist for hoisting the reclaimer boom from a lower position to an upper position, and a control unit for hoisting the reclaimer boom from the lower position to the upper position simultaneously with rotating the reclaimer boom about the vertical axis of the central tower.

An apparatus includes a material transport channel having a first side and an opposite second side. The apparatus further includes a first loading auger at least partially positioned within the material transport channel and a first side auger positioned adjacent the first side of the material transport channel. The first side auger is configured to direct material from a surface toward the material transport channel via rotation of the first side auger, and the first loading auger is configured to direct material within the material transport channel from a bottom portion of the material transport channel towards an upper portion of the material transport channel via rotation of the first loading auger.
