A system and method for a transfer of material in a tube or chute from a first location at a first height to a second location at a second height. The system can increase the lifespan and usefulness of that chute by allowing an easy rotation that tube or chute with respect to its supply and distribution locations such that the requirement for heavy machinery is reduced or eliminated during the repositioning process. This system allows for the correct positioning of a unworn or underutilized location of that chute as the main support path for the material transport in that chute.
