Self-contained multi-axis articulable platform and containment system for facilitating transport and dispersal of bulk materials and methods for employing such a system

A material delivery system, comprising:

• a frame;
• at least one wheel mounted to the frame;
• a frame connecting component that is configured (1) to cooperate with a mount to facilitate connecting the frame to a powered device and (2) to facilitate positioning the frame between a substantially horizontal position with respect to the mount and a substantially vertical position with respect to the mount,
• the frame comprising one or more hinged connection components configured to connect a hopper to the frame in a manner that the the hopper, is tiltable with respect to the frame,
• wherein:
• the at least one wheel comprises a pair of wheels, each of the pair of wheels being casterable around a substantially vertical axis;
• each of the pair of wheels is mounted to an independent frame extension;
• each independent frame extension is movable with respect to the frame to position each of the pair of wheels between a first position in which at least a portion of each of the pair of wheels extends beyond a planform of the frame, and a second position in which no portion of each of the pair of wheels extends beyond the planform of the frame.
