A radial conveyor 10 has a chassis with a longitudinal axis and a wheel assembly on the chassis, preferably assemblies 30A, 30B located at each side of the chassis. Each wheel assembly 30A, 30B is movable with respect to the chassis between a non-deployed state and a deployed state. In the non-deployed state wheel assemblies 30A, 30B have rotational axes perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, which may allow them to support transport of the radial conveyor. In the deployed state the rotational axes are radially spaced from the longitudinal axis; typically the wheels may then support radial movement of the conveyor. Wheel assemblies 30A, 30B are also raisable and lowerable with respect to the chassis, which may allow the ground clearance of the chassis and the overall height of conveyor 10 to be adjusted, as well as facilitating transition between operating modes. A jack (58, Figure 5) may also be provided on each side of the chassis.
