Trap dividers allow you to transfer cats from trap to transfer cage or to contain a cat in a trap to change soiled paper, food, water. Here is a demonstration of using a trap divider to transfer.

What would the deviders be used for in this situation? I am not too familiar with all the best practices in TNR so I am curious.

One of my biggest pieces of advice is simply that if you can prep/set a trap by your vehicle/house, etc, and then carry it while set all the way to where you want to place it, you need to check your work and reset it! The trap should be sensitive enough that they 'go off' when jostled while carrying it. You can do all the prep at your home base, but setting the trap needs to happen after it's placed for the cats.
Also - it is 100% worthwhile to purchase trap forks (AKA trap dividers). I think my volunteers - even 'veteran' trappers - have been most impressed by the trap forks.
