An apparatus for moving material that increases in unit weight over time froma first endtoward a second end, comprising a base, a web and a web-mover. The baseextendsbetween the first and second ends. The web is supported by the base andextendsbetween the first end and an intermediate point at a first inclined angle andbetween theintermediate point and the second end at a second declined angle, for bearingthematerial thereon. The web-mover urges the web, with material deposited thereonat aninitial point proximate to the first end, toward the second end over time. Theincreasedunit weight of the material between the intermediate point and the second endrelative tothe between the first end and the intermediate point facilitates urging theweb from thefirst end toward the second end.
