A grain lifter may be attached to the front end of a tractor or dozer. The grain lifter has an auger for moving grain or other bulk commodities towards a receiving end of the auger. A support structure supports the auger and has at least a vertical collecting wall and a collecting lip which lies under the auger to help collect grain as the grain lifter is moved through a pile of grain. The auger is enclosed on two sides by the collecting wall and collecting lip. A collection device lies adjacent the receiving end of the auger to collect grain that is directed to that end of the auger. In a method for using the grain lifter, a grain pile is collected. A tractor having a grain lifter is driven into the grain pile. Grain is moved along the length of the auger towards the collection device. The grain is then collected through the collection device. The collecting device may be a vacuum pump.
