Awww. The only place where I feel like I'm entirely in control of this as an employee is in the lobby. When I'm in the lobby, I have all the time I need to talk to passengers with large/too many carry-ons and either have them consolidate or check them.
My lobby has strategically placed carry-on size checks so it's easy to ask people to place their bag inside one. I try to catch as many as I can. My airport has an unusually large amount of 4-foot-long-backpacks. Just because you can strap it on your back doesn't make it carry-on size
