traveling alone with 3 kids, lots of luggage and renting a car

Hello,   

I am traveling to Seattle-Tacome International at the end of the month and am wondering how to set up luggage assistance.  I will traveling with 2 young kids with a significant amount of luggage.  Normally, I would just rent one of their luggage carts and be on my way but we are renting a car this time as well.  I am wondering if I can get someone to assist me with my luggage, hold one to it while I get the car with my two kids and then meet me at the curbside with it to load it in the rental.  Has anyone ever done this and if so how did you set it up.  I have already called the airport the told me to contact southwest, called southwest they told to to talk to the airport and called our rental car company to see if they can pick us up at the actual terminal and they declined that option.

So, I'm wondering where to start.

Southwest will not be able to watch your bags while you get your car. Ask for a SkyCap at the airport for assistance.
