Velcro strap pairs connected by some webbing can tote several stands at a time 
until the velcro gets too dirty to hold well.

For more stability a safety, a 3 foot dowel or 2x2 with a handle and four 
velcro straps will carry 3 or 4 light stands.

Cardboard tubes, one for each umbrella, strapped together, with a grip at the 
balance point. Boxes I'd make a heavy material bag to hold the cloth, a 
cardboard tube for the rods, throw the light adaptor it all hooks up to into a 
general equipment box with your weight bags, bean bags, spare brackets, 
extension cords, rope and clamps, etc.
