If you want to get the Items and stay In one place, use the Project Red Transportation chunk of Project Red using the Pipes. Although its expensive using these pipes can be an easy way to get your items from a distance. But there Is a penalty long long long distances aren't good for this. I would prefer to make a load of chests under your base and hook them up with pipes and a request pipe to make sure, along with that purple kind of pipe with chips in them at the chests.
