I will be relocating. I will be moving alone with 8 pieces of luggage- and I don’t think I can handle 2 trolleys. Wondering if I can get someone in the airport to help - and an estimate of charge.

Of course their available. Their call Skycaps and their always present at the airport. You can also walk over to Information Desk at airport and request a Skycap. The person behind the desk will gladly called one up via two way radio or telephone.
I hope this information is very helpful.
Good luck
Hi VP,
Are you relocating to or away for NY? Skycaps are available but is differs if you are leaving JFK or coming to it.
DEPARTING
Curbside unloading areas for baggage and passengers are available at each terminal and in most cases are weather protected and located close to each airline’s entrance door. Please make arrangements with your airline at least 24 hours in advance to confirm assistance with baggage check-in, ticketing and movement to the gate area and the availability of curbside parking. Skycaps are available to assist you in getting your luggage to the check-in-area.
ARRIVING
For most scheduled airlines, you can expect weather-protected passage via modern jetways from the aircraft to your terminal. Once in the terminal, elevators are available where a change to another level is required to reach baggage claim, ground transportation or connecting flights from JFK. If you are traveling on American Eagle at Terminal 8, please have your travel agent contact the airline and let them know what time your flight is due to depart. American Eagle has two ADA certified lifting devices that will take you from the ground to the aircraft entrance safely and comfortably.
In the baggage claim areas, Skycaps are available to help with your luggage.
If a friend, family member or business associate will be driving to the airport to meet you, please understand that they will not be permitted to wait in their car at the arrivals level curb frontage. If you and all your baggage are not there when your ride pulls up to the curb, the driver must park in an airport parking lot and walk to the terminal to wait for you. Meeter-Greeters are required to pay the same parking fee as other airport customers.
Cars standing (not actively loading or unloading at the arrivals or departures curbs) will be ticketed, and unattended cars will be towed at the owners expense.
