But I'm open to ideas. I'll have to make a list of all the tools and parts that I'll want but definitely a couple multi-tools, spoke wrench, chain wrench, lube, spare tubes, patches, tire levers, hand wipes, along with a ziploc bag of essential spare parts. I'll need to go over the bike and trailer top to bottom to make sure I have every possible tool that I'll need.
I like the looks of that one. I picked up something similar from an Army Navy surplus store for about $5 IIRC. It holds: 8mm wrench, 10mm wrench, Sharpie, ballpoint pen, Fiberfix spoke kit, patch kit, tire levers (2), a small screwdriver and probably a couple of things I'm forgetting. I've seen something similar for the civilian market (Bucket Mates?).

I do need to pare down to something smaller now that I'm not running a clunker that needs constant repairs. I probably don't need to be carrying around full size box end wrenches anymore...
