I see Pillsbury pre-made dough rolled in tubes. This makes it easier to open it at one end and chop off slices as needed.
In my case, I force freshly made cookie dough into containers and just slice them up later — very difficult and tough. I tried preparing them into rolled parchment paper, which I ended up using a lot of, so it was thus wasteful.
Is there tool I can use so I can form the freshly made cookie dough into tubes, for ease of rolling later on?

A sausage stuffer, perhaps?
Your standard food mill attachment type more typically seen in a home kitchen:
Unless you're seeing some product I've never met, I would not call that stuff "rolled in tubes" - I'd call it a tube (or log) of dough, and I expect the filling process is VERY like a (large, automated) sausage stuffer, and involves no rolling at all.
In making refrigerator cookies, one simply makes a log out of the dough, wraps it, and places it in the fridge to harden before slicing. The dough is not liquid to start with, so it does not pour, and can be shaped without a form. If your "dough" "pours" I'm dubious about your recipe or method.
