A portable, self-erecting silo apparatus utilized for temporarily storing and dispensing asphaltic mix comprising: a chassis suitable for towing behind a vehicle, the chassis having a first end portion and a second end portion; a support frame disposed between the first end portion and the opposed second end portion of the chassis for defining a passageway therebetween for passage therethrough of a vehicle; a container telescopically received in the support frame and movable from a first position wherein the container is disposed within the support frame to a second position wherein the container is disposed generally above the passageway defined by the support frame and the first and second end portions of the chassis; a conveyor; and, pivot means for pivotally connecting the conveyor to one of the first and opposed second end portions of the chassis. The pivot means permits movement of the conveyor between a stored position wherein the container is maintained in the first position and the conveyor is disposed above and supported by the support frame and the container, an intermediate position wherein the container is substantially maintained in the first position and the conveyor is moved to a raised intermediate position, and an operative position wherein the container is moved to the raised second position and the conveyor is raised to an operative position such that an outlet end portion of the conveyor is substantially centrally disposed above the container.
