While that would be very nice, I can see their reasoning for not wanting to do so. (They wan't everyone out on time, so the volunteers can get a good sleep!)
The strategic thing to do, is when the 5 team reps load in on that night: Carry everything in, in a certain order...
Person 1 carries this box, which just so happens to go in the farthest corner, followed by person 2, which puts their box next to person 1, etc...
You can drop everything off and have your boxes/toolchest/carts already arranged, within 5 minutes.
Of course, if you have big pit displays/tents, etc, that doesn't really work. But for the basics, it will.
