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.

Subject: [filmscanners] Flattening negatives


Any good tips for flattening negatives before you scan them?  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!
Ed
