I forgot! We also bring two folding tables. They fit on the trailer because they are rectangular and really narrow.
We got ours from Craigslist, but new they seem to come from Walmart: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Cosco-20-x-48-Resin-Top-Folding-Table-Black/50872...
They are pretty lightweight; they also help create a bigger platform for carrying things on the trailer.

Our popup kit has everything that Kickstand's and AMS's does, except we only use one tent and we don't bring spare parts or other bikes. Our popup is transported by bike trailer, complete bikes wouldn't be manageable.
A couple of things we tend to bring that haven't been mentioned are a few fresh cables, a flat file, and some electrical tape to make rim strips (first wrap sticky side up, second wrap sticky side down, puncture to make valve hole).
Housings are considered a bit out of scope. We'll ask people to come by the shop if the repairs require too many spare parts. SO MANY MANGLED REAR DERAILERS. UGH.

We do these about once a month at a soup kitchen type facility in Raleigh. Here is what we bring:
- One or two tents (10' x 10')
- Bike Stand(s)
- Bike Tools (fairly complete set of common bike tools, fit in a
standard size carryable tool box)
- Regular Tools (including common hand tools plus hack saw, bolt
cutters, tin snips)
- Truing Stand
- 1-2 parts bikes. These are fairly complete bikes that have been
deemed too far gone to fix. We strip parts as needed to make repair
- 1-2 exchange bikes. These are donated bikes that are ready to
go, if someone brings in a daily driver that we deem to be unsafe we try to exchange.
- Tubes (3-4 26", 1 each of 700 x 32, 24", 29", 20" all schrader)
- (2) floor pumps
- Zip Ties
- Assorted used tires (mostly 26")
- Park Tools book on bike repair
- Brake pads
- Brake cable and housing
- Shift cable and housing
- Chain lube, PB Blaster, Grease (for wheel bearings), spray
bottle of rubbing alcohol (to remove grips), 3 in 1 oil (for rusted chains worth saving)
Could probably get away with a lot less but this is what we have evolved to over the last 1.5 years. We have a great group of volunteers who are not afraid to do some extensive repairs.
