Make sure the first sheet is square with the eave or ridge line. If the roof isn't square to start with there isn't much you can do except try to move each sheet a bit on one end of the side overlap. Corrugated roofing is more forgiving in this respect than the v type.

When you trim the sheets, turn the blade on the saw backwards, it works.
