You're not going to rent anything but a Terra-Mite for 300.00, why not use what you got? Take down the 3-5" stuff with the Hitachi, push it around with the loader. Mow the rest of it. Besides, you can bury stuff with the Hitachi. Dig a hole for the trees and gather up all the junk laying around your yard and throw that down there too. If that is just not workable and you have to rent something, as lumpie says, a track loader with long teeth. I would not be concerned with a 4-in-1 bucket,unless you were going to load a dump truck. A G.P. bucket will work fine. 30 acres? A 955L would not be too much. I would mow it first, it'll be easier to get the overall picture, and make it easier to choose your method of attack. I don't think soy beans is a good first crop. Even with a first-class moldboard job, as soon as the rain washes the dirt down through the roots, they'll start standing up in front of the cutterbar for the first year, until they get crispy enough to get plowed down for good the second year. I would suggest corn for no other reason than the combine will take in less foreign material.
