In color neg, find a high volume lab that is clean and runs a lot of control strips(what you are looking for is very flat lines within five units of 0 and all three colors grouped tightly) and have them process only. Pick up the negs, sleeve them and look at them with a good loop. Have only the best printed. Or, purchase a near 4000 dpi scanner and do it at home. Scanners are getting to be near $500 these days so that isn't too high a price for someone who shoots more than 5 rolls a week; much less someone who looks at a brick as a nice couple of hours. For E-6, probably your best price will come from mailers sold by many companies. If you get to be high volume, think JOBO. For that matter, a JOBO might make sense for more than 10 rolls a week of mixed film.
