A storage and dispensing system for ice in flake or particle form is disclosed utilizing a storage bin with driven screw augers extending outwardly over and above an ice storage space, the discharge end of the screw augers being pivotally mounted at the discharge end thereof with the other end of the augers being flexibly suspended for arcuate movement about the pivoted end to a position above the stored ice and being lowered into contact with the stored ice for auger dispensing, the auger being lowered as ice is discharged; the auger dispenser is oscillatable lengthwise during dispensing drive and is equipped with ice cutting blades on the outer edges of the screw flights and at the free end of such flights so as to ensure cutting a path through the particle ice as the conveyor device descends through the stored ice for dispensing purposes.
