I sold my pickup then started a massive landscaping effort; falling trees, pruning hedges, removing shrubs and plants, replacing sprinkler systems...
Removing cumulative debris on a rolling timeline becomes a logistical challenge with repetitive hauling costs, if mis-managed.
Renting a pickup and trailer or hiring a contractor/handyman to haul it all away to the landfill would result in multiple trips, reservations, coordinating schedules, unproductive time. I can toss 2 yards in a dumpster a couple hours a week for a month and be done for $240-/8 hrs
Instead of unproductive hours picking up and returning rentals or chasing contractors, I can keep working on my landscape projects, making piles to toss in the dumpster on the other side of my gate that my concierge will haul away for me.
Cheap.
While I sleep.
DUMPSTER UPDATE:
So. The dumpster wasn't delivered on time, it's actually 'One Yard' not 'Two', but they sent one later after I complained. I filled it in 15 minutes and ready for next week to do it again and again and again and again and again... 'til nothing remains. :-)

Do I buy a wheelbarrow and rent a dumpster or hire someone to haul my accumulating landscaping waste piles?
Should I paint my own sky mural on the 15' x 60' Wall or hire a pro?
Why does the weedwhacker start fine, bog down, die? (Don't @ me solutions. Been there, done that)
All the Rose bushes are OUT (20 plus). A few Gardenias arrive Wednesday. 1/2 of the total sprinkler system is re-designed and working. Iris' suck because most of the time they just sit there doing nothing but spreading and turning brown. What idiot decided pebbles were pretty?
Where do I put all the millions of decorative pebbles I don't want and why aren't they ferrous metal so I can use a magnet to pick all of them up instead of trying to rake and separate them from the soil?
I just ordered a commercial dumpster for 3 months...
