So I was waiting for a drow caravan (I play Masterwork DF) to arrive, and suddenly they packed up again and left without trading. I was wondering what caused that, and a quick search of my entrance hall revealed this:

It seems like my previous dwarf caravan took too long to pack up, which might be related to the 30 bins of useless bone craft I dumped on them, without the bins, and collided head on with the new incoming one. Any ideas what to do now with that?

Sadly, you gotta cave-in on 'em, nothing else to do. Build a floor, drop it on the caravan.

Simply wait. I had a similar event recently in a 5tile wide entrance/exit corridor where a human and a dwarven caravan met. It took ages (read: several months) but finally they managed to separate. To speed things up I also widened the corridor but I'm not sure whether this really helped. Nevertheless you could try giving them some more space by cutting the trees around them.

It solved itself by now with one of the caravans breaking up, now I have all their useless junk, but at least they're gone

Cut down the trees around them, this will give more routes to maneuver the wagons
