First advice is go to a better lab:) That's not a normal result. If you can tape the film edges in the carrier that's one way. Otherwise about all you can do that doesn't risk damage is to flatten with weight and wait, or get a glass carrier.

When I get negatives back from the lab, they have a pronounced side to side curl that makes loading theming to the scanner a problem, much less getting good edge to edge resolution. Pre-flattening seems a much better option than glass carriers or new scanners. Thanks!
