Too much baggage to carry?

My wife and little children have to fly home to LHR without me and while I can get them to JFK they'll have too much luggage to reasonably carry on a trolley. It seems there is no porter service anymore. How have other folks dealt with this going from luggage belt to taxi?
Cheers

Probably a little more expensive though something I've done before.

Could you stop off at FedEx/UPS and ship some of the luggage? Your wife would just need to answer the door at home and sign for a package or 3 (rather than carrying anything)?

Sadly too expensive to do UPS internationally because each bag is at least 20 lbs.
