 I've done this to solve this problem for a twosided doc:

 \newlength\oddsidemarginorig
 \oddsidemarginorig=\oddsidemargin
 \oddsidemargin -5 mm  %or whatever you want/need
...
 TEXT
...
 \oddsidemargin=\oddsidemarginorig  %recovery of the original value

 Perhaps it works in your case, perhaps you have to make some changes, 
 perhaps there's a better way ;)
