How do I straighten out a curled plastic office mat?

Hi Carol, maybe rolling the plastic mat up backwards and tieing it in a few places for a day, then unrolling and placing back on the floor will assist with the curling edges.

Take the mat into the garage or outside. Turn the mat over so the curled edges are facing down. Use a blow dryer on high heat to soften the plastic. Use your foot and gently prsee down on the curled edges.

Maybe put heavy things on the corners

You could try leaving it out in the sun until it uncurls.

Get some 2 way tape and tape them down if not turnmat over and use that way for a month

Your welcome. Glad to help

I put my chair on it to keep it down and after a few days it straightened out. However, I like William's quick fix much better. Will have to remember that one for sure!!

Try turning it over. Using a heat gun on the edges and putting something heavy on them for a few hrs.

Have you tried weighing down the plastic down with bricks or something heavy? I would think if you weighed it down for a while, it would straighten out.

Hi! All great ideas. I always put mine out in the hot summer sun.

Hi Carol: If it's hot outside, take the mat outside and put it on the driveway and let it sit in the sun all day. Then turn it over and let it sit out the next day.

Good luck

Is there any way to flip the mat over? Maybe you can use the other side and the curls will flatten out.
